School visit to the rural radio in Yanacachi

Friday June 30th, 2023

In June, 16 children of the 2nd grade of Felix Ernesto Moscoso School visited our office in Yanacachi together with their teacher. The aim of the visit to the headquarters of our project “Access to Civic Information” was to find out how rural radio works in Yanacachi. Our reporter Oscar García explained that in the past, a recording device called “little box” was used to record radio reports. With the advancement of technology, interviews are now conducted with cell phones. Thus, photos or videos can be taken at the same time, which can then be distributed social networks, such as Facebook. The audio recordings are broadcast on the Radio FM Bolivia and also published on the digital site Yungas Noticias.
