Resume
Projektforslagets formål er at opnå den mest fair og inkluderende tværgående udvikling, som er det overordende mål for SDG'erne. Målene er for at tilgode behov hos de rettighedsberøvet og mest marginaliserede mennesker, i henhold til ”Right to Communicate”. The Right to Communicate er mest effektiv hvis det tager udgangspunkt fra deres egne kommunicationsressourcer. Participatory Community Radio er netop sådant en ressource, og derfor en effektiv vej mod opnåelse af verdensmålene.
