Radio and Women's Empowerment in Francophone West Africa
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-031-35984-2 (ISBN)
It examines the representation and perception of key themes broadcast by radio and associated with women's empowerment in the three countries. Each chapter contextualises a specific topic in the country and then explores discrete aspects of radio's provision. The topics covered in the chapters are women's political engagement; women and finances; women and life within marriage; inheritance; women's involvement in radio structures; and radio, internally displaced women, and trauma.
Given the social, economic and political vulnerability and deteriorating security situation of the three countries, this book provides a timely and meaningful contribution to acknowledging and understanding the vital role of radio in women's empowerment.
Emma Heywood is a Senior Lecturer in Journalism, Radio and Communication at the University of Sheffield.
