This project seeks to promote awareness about the gendered experiences
of high school girls in the Northern Province in order to promote and
underscore the importance of girls' education. Awareness of their experiences
and the importance of education for girls - among other issues - will
be raised via the production of a number of voice recordings - produced
by the girls - for broadcasting by community and commercial radio stations
in the Northern Province.
