Download the Civic and Voter Education Toolkit for Community Radio Professionals in Nigeria
The Centre for Media and Society (CEMESO) is pleased to announce the release of the Doing Civic and Voter Education: A Toolkit for Community Radio Professionals in Nigeria. This comprehensive resource is designed to empower community radio broadcasters with the knowledge and skills to effectively deliver civic and voter education to their audiences.
About the Toolkit The toolkit is a vital resource that addresses the crucial role of community radio stations in promoting democratic values and enhancing voter participation. It provides practical guidelines on:
- Understanding Civic and Voter Education (CVE)
- Programme planning and formats for CVE
- Conducting audience research
- Dealing with misinformation, disinformation, and hate speech
- Ensuring inclusivity in CVE
With insights on how to engage marginalized groups such as women, youth, and persons with disabilities, the toolkit aims to foster an informed and inclusive electorate.
Why This Toolkit Matters Despite the increasing involvement of stakeholders in civic and voter education, voter apathy and the incidence of rejected ballots remain high in Nigeria. This toolkit equips community radio professionals to design and deliver effective voter education programmes that respond to the unique informational needs of their audiences.
