Our crew is on the way to Magwi (South Sudan). Meanwhile, please check our facebook page for further information on the Youth Radio Magwi Project.

Through this project youth radio is once more becoming a tool to help resolve conflicts and build peace, by giving young people the chance and the means to communicate.

This project is implemented in cooperation with the German Development Service (DED).

These thoughts were compiled by Dominik Lehnert in response to an invitation by AGdD (Foerderungswerk) to write an article for an issue of ‘TRANSFER’ entitled ‘CONFLICT TRANSFORMATION AND PEACEBUILDING’.

A shorter German version of this article was published in August 2009 in ‘TRANSFER 2/2009’.
