Radio Ndarason International (RNI)

The main role of this radio is to serve as a tool against extreme violence. It serves as a platform to promote a local discourse among all actors affected by the current crisis in the Lake Chad region.

Based on the assumption that dialogue is the necessary condition to find a peaceful solution is lasting, which in turn leads us to a better quality of life.

The radio serves as a mechanism to convince people that they have a future in the region. Put in broader terms – while it is believed that a better life is possible in the Lake Chad region, the need and desire to migrate in order to settle elsewhere diminishes.

The radio, in partnership with the Lake Chad Basin Commission (LCBC) broadcasts content in Kanembu and Kanuri languages ​​in order to help stabilize the Lake Chad region by stimulating constructive dialogue between everyone involved in the current crisis.

History

The radio started broadcasting in 2015 as a one hour a day service based in Kano, Nigeria called Dandal Kura Radio International (DKRI). In early 2016 we moved the studios to Maiduguri, NE Nigeria and began broadcasting 6 hours a day of mostly Kanuri language content.

For administrative reasons in 2016 we moved the headquarters of the operation to Ndjamena, Chad, but continued broadcasting as before. The next phase of development envisages the growing importance of N’Djamena as the key production and administration centre for the network. To reflect this development, a more regionally inclusive name for the radio is gradually being phased in – Radio Ndarason Internationale1 (RNI).

M&E; The growing place the radio occupies is evident in a just completed survey carried out in the Chadian capital as well as in the Lake Chad area. Survey results show that DKRI is a key driver in the effort to create a positive dialogue in the region, but its work is not complete.

These are some of the key findings by ORB International2, a US-based research organisation specialising in quantitative and qualitative research in complex environments:3

  • Listeners in Chad have an extremely positive idea (97%) of the radio
  • Over three quarters of listeners say that RNI meets their needs and
  • Listeners are very positive about the RNI’s offerings and areparticularly positive about broadcasts and content in the Kanuri and Kanembu languages.
  • Listeners appreciate RNI’s role as a source of unbiased news
  • Listeners (in Chad) express a clear (89%) preference for more content from N’Djamena
  • More than half of the listeners surveyed express increased support for the MNJTF because of listening to our radio.
  • Overall, listener support for extremism, violence and Boko Haram is decreasing since listening to Radio Ndarason International.

Frequencies and broadcast times

The RNI radio network broadcasts on shortwave across the whole region and beyond, three hours of programmes every morning and three hours in the evening. In addition we have an FM transmitter in N’Djamena (107.1 FM) and another at Bol beside Lake Chad.

Radio Romania Actualità (RRA) is a public radio station , providing information of national interest with a generalist format, which reflects daily events, both domestic and international.

Radio Romania Actualità is the only station in Romania with national coverage of over 99% of the country's territory. It broadcasts 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and has the most extensive network of correspondents in the country and abroad, as well as special envoys in conflict zones. Radio Romania Actualită offers its audience the most complex news programs, "Radiojurnal" being a well-known brand for a long time, radio programs with social, cultural, political, economic and entertainment content.

Brief history edit edit source ]

Founded in 1928, under the name of the Radio-Telephone Broadcasting Society, Radio Romania is one of the oldest radio stations in Europe, but well connected, through dynamics, editorial strategy and broadcast content, to the immediate reality. Before November 1, 1928, the date on which the first transmission of the national station took place, there was a real pro-radio movement in Romania, whose main protagonist was Professor Dragomir Hurmuzescu (the first president of the Society's Board of Directors); the passion and work of some pioneers in the field, in Romania, have materialized through the establishment of the institution that today bears the name of the Romanian Broadcasting Society and which millions of listeners know as Radio Romania.

Radio Romania's flagship station, Radio Romania Actualități, is considered the successor of the first national station, although it now has numerous "siblings". So, on November 1, 1928, the first official broadcast by Radio Romania takes place.

Another important moment in the station's history takes place on September 21, 1939, when the legionary group of 9 people, who assassinated Prime Minister Armand Călinescu , broke into the Radiodifuzioni headquarters, interrupted the Radio Orchestra's concert and announced the assassination to the whole country (time 14:15). Although armed with 8 pistols, 32 magazines, an incendiary vial and a 1 kg bomb, after this announcement they surrendered to the SRR guards. Like the announcement of the assassination, the Prime Minister's funeral was broadcast live on the radio station.

Order of Marshal Ion Antonescu " Soldiers, I order you: Cross the Prut!" ", given on the night of June 21/22, 1941, the return of arms against the German army, on August 23, 1944, the abdication of King Mihai I, or the days of the Revolution in December 1989, are other moments in Romania's history that were broadcast live on the same station by radio.

Radio Romania Actualității is recognized as a fervent promoter of sports, on June 11, 1933, with the first live broadcast of a football match: Romania - Yugoslavia , in the Balkan Cup. Starting from that moment, Radio Romania Actualităti gathered all the sports lovers around the radios, making direct and exclusive transmissions of the domestic football championship, all the matches of the national team, including those from the European or world championships, but also from other competitions where Romanian athletes won numerous medals, European or World Championships and Olympic Games.

Also, the name Radio Romania Actualității is linked to the promotion of quality Romanian and international music, the station being recognized as a launching pad for many big names in Romanian music. February 20, 1937 is the date when Maria Tănase, the unsurpassed representative of the Romanian folk song, was launched on the radio. She is only among the first of a truly impressive list.

According to the results of the latest polls, Radio Romania Actualității has the largest number of listeners at the urban level, being the most listened to radio station in Bucharest. [1]
