Meena's Student discussions after the broadcast reinforce messages on education, nutrition, hygiene, sanitation, health, child marriage and child labor.
Funded through the generous support of the IKEA Social Initiative, Meena Radio is a partnership between UNICEF, the UP Government and All India Radio to promote child rights, gender equity and child- friendly schools.
One hundred and sixty radio episodes are currently under production. In addition, the state has 36,000 Meena Manch, or forums to undertake social activities fighting for girls’ education and against child marriage.
Students tune in afternoons Monday through Saturday to the broadcast on radio sets provided by the government. The government also trained teachers on how to use Meena Radio as a teaching aid and has issued a directive to schools to facilitate radio-listening at the prescribed time.
The pilot program was launched on International Women’s Day 8 March in the districts of Lucknow and Lalitpur. The program will be implemented in seven more districts starting in July.
