“Children’s voices are often overlooked by media”, says Jackie Davies, OneWorld Radio Manager. “We are hoping that this competition will encourage radio stations to give children a voice by including programmes made by and for children in their broadcasts.” OneWorld Radio ( www.oneworld.net/radio )-- a part of OneWorld.net - a global non-profit network of up to 1,500 NGOs worldwide –- is an online community of radio stations and NGOs sharing programs and ideas on sustainable development and human rights.
