Radio Programs

Effectively designing, producing, disseminating, and evaluating various aspects of social behavior change communication-based radio programs is our USP. We have already produced over 100 thousand minutes of audio content and we have a strong network of over 200 radio stations across Nepal who work with us on a regular basis to make our behavior change communication and community engagement goals possible.
Some of our radio programs are considered milestone achievements in Nepal’s radio movement history. From the very first generation of FM radio stations to 700 of them across Nepal now, DBI EA is a household name to effectively carries out messages that aspire to positive changes in communities.
Overall, we take pride in establishing some of the well-appreciated best practices in terms of radio engagement activities in Nepal.
