Wake up Mozambique!" that's what the
children who participated in
the “Seminário Nacional de Rádio Infantil 2004” (National
Children's Radio Seminar 2004") want to say to everyone - meaning that it
is time to pay attention to the kids, and to respect children's rights.
"Desperta Mozambique!" was the name chosen for the 3 magazine programmes
that were developed during the Seminário that took place in December
2004. 
CMFD Productions collaborated with IBIS
- Mozambique to bring together children, accompanied by adult presenters
working on children's programmes, from 42 radio stations across the country
to participate in the week long forum. Participants included representatives
from community
stations, as well as Unicef/ Radio Mozambique's Child to Child radio programmes.
The goal of the seminar was to use participatory radio to create
a series of magazine style radio programmes produced by and for young people.
Participants gained first hand knowledge in interviewing, creating spots,
putting together reportage, and developing radio dramas. The magazines address
the right to education, the right to health, and the right to play. CMFD wrote a chapter on working
with young people to create radio dramas in the seminar manual, facilitated
the radio drama segment of the seminar, provided 2 portable recording studios,
and provided on site production. CMFD also produced the audio post-seminar
in our studios. 
A series of three magazine style programmes
were produced on the rights to play, health and education.
