Speakers and organizers of #Lomé2

In French-speaking Africa, radio is the medium par excellence. For one week, some 170 representatives of religious radio stations are gathering in Lomé, Togo, for a new week of training. Organized jointly by the Radio Réveil association in Bevaix and Radio Ebène et Développement in France, this week aims to develop the quality of Christian radio stations in Africa.

On Monday, November 25, more than 170 representatives from 72 religious radio stations in French-speaking Africa gathered in Lomé, Togo, for a week of training on the theme "Inventing Integral Radio." In the opening session, Communications Minister Folly-Bazi Katari welcomed the fact that the seminar aimed to "promote excellence in Christian media." He also considered that "this seminar was timely in addressing the major challenges of integrating new information and communication technologies and promoting ethics and professional conduct." The minister also called on religious media actors to "safeguard peace in our countries" so that Muslims and Christians can peacefully attend their places of worship on Fridays and Sundays.
