Creative-Radio is a forum for people active or interested in using 
radio creatively in international public health, development and 
related fields. Creative Radio tries to bridge the gap between 
journalism and humanitarian, post-conflict and development 
activities. The Creative Radio list uses this unique position to help 
develop strategies to make the best use of the mass media, at a time 
when radio's role is recognized widely as key in the fight against 
illiteracy, poverty and disease.

Creative-Radio is pleased to be supported by:
Internews® Network http://www.internews.org is an international 
non-profit organization that supports open media worldwide. The 
organization fosters independent media in emerging democracies, 
produces innovative television and radio programming and Internet 
content, and uses the media to reduce conflict within and between 
countries
and
Media Support Solutions / Media Support Partnership 
http://www.mediasupport.org a Scottish-based consultancy and NGO 
which works with local broadcasters in developing countries to 
harness the power of the media to benefit the information-poor in the 
world.
