Medical student members of Society of Nigerian Doctors for the Welfare of Mankind (IPPNW /Nigeria), launched a radio series “Bringing Peace to the People” on Silverbird Rhythm FM 93.7 radio, Jos, Nigeria.
It was designed to educate about and inspire people to work for peace in Nigeria, and to support IPPNW’s global Aiming for Prevention campaign, a public health approach to violence prevention.
![Page 40: Preventing Armed Violence, Promoting Health and Development: A Medical and Moral Imperative](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56814a9d550346895db7aba1/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Why radio?
![Page 41: Preventing Armed Violence, Promoting Health and Development: A Medical and Moral Imperative](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56814a9d550346895db7aba1/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Radio is the predominant source of news and information for the African public.
Studies have pointed to high rates of illiteracy, the importance of oral tradition, and the costs of other media (e.g., print, television, and internet) as contributing to a reliance on radio.
Nigeria radio is largely state-controlled, there is a need to develop community radio stations and worthwhile broadcast content.
Everyone has - or has access to - a radio receiver!!!!!!
![Page 42: Preventing Armed Violence, Promoting Health and Development: A Medical and Moral Imperative](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56814a9d550346895db7aba1/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
"Bringing Peace to the People" is one of the first attempts to use radio in Nigeria for these more beneficial ends:
Community developmentEducationViolence prevention

Jos is a city in Nigeria's middle belt and is the administrative capital of Plateau State.
In recent years (2001, 2004, 2008 and 2010) it has suffered violent ethno religious & political clashes where many Nigerians have been injured and killed.

The first spate of violence in 2010 started on 17 January. At least 200 people were killed.
Hundreds of people died in fresh clashes in March 2010. The state police command said that there were 326 deaths and 313 arrests.
Guns were fired by the perpetrators.

Yes!! In view of the recurrent crises!! We had to
come in & voice our concern to the public. We now went to the media!!
![Page 50: Preventing Armed Violence, Promoting Health and Development: A Medical and Moral Imperative](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56814a9d550346895db7aba1/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Yes!! Free from the influence of the government, or politicians! Strictly an independent radio station!
We contacted ray power fm & silver bird rhythm fm. All successful fm stations in Jos with a wide coverage!!
the independent radio station agreed it was a good idea and provided a forum for us to reach out to youths in the Jos area and the programs were popular and interesting
![Page 51: Preventing Armed Violence, Promoting Health and Development: A Medical and Moral Imperative](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56814a9d550346895db7aba1/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
We drew on projects of IPPNW as well as other evidence-based research on the impact of armed violence. Program topics included:
1. One Bullet Stories
2. Small Arms Violence and Health 3. Youth, Violence and Health
We invited health professional guests such as physicians to speak to the target youth listeners.

Mainly divided into 2, and aired alternatively 2 weekly.
A. a live phone in interactive session where we discussed topics previously mentioned
B. an education session where topics were also discussed and listeners asked to send comments and messages.
![Page 53: Preventing Armed Violence, Promoting Health and Development: A Medical and Moral Imperative](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56814a9d550346895db7aba1/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)

We mixed peace music & popular music during sessions.
The standing policy of the radio station demands that all programs should have music interludes.
The popular music was aimed at drawing the attention of listeners, then the peace songs to drive the message home immediately after sessions.
![Page 55: Preventing Armed Violence, Promoting Health and Development: A Medical and Moral Imperative](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56814a9d550346895db7aba1/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
We received comments and contributions from individuals and groups including:
◦ I love your program, a big well done, keep it up.
◦ The message was passed - good examples of peoples stories when discussing one bullet stories. From action group on adolescent health

We surveyed 40 randomly selected youths from 8 areas in Jos.
84% surveyed recommended the program. 75% believed that the radio is a means of
reducing violent conflicts. 75% are frequent listeners of radio 63% do not agree to possession of guns,18%
believe in the possession of guns for self defense, while 19% are not sure.
![Page 59: Preventing Armed Violence, Promoting Health and Development: A Medical and Moral Imperative](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56814a9d550346895db7aba1/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Independent radio seems to be a useful tool to educate youths on the need for nonviolent forms of conflict resolution.
Civil society should encourage and support
more independent radio programs such as “Bringing Peace to the People.”
We need more rigorous data on injuries and deaths from armed violence in Nigeria, and more data on factors that may prevent violence.

Measuring armed violence in Papua New Guinea
• Peace processes lower the rates of intentional weapon injury compared to settings where tribal violence is poorly controlled (e.g. in the Southern Highlands Province).
![Page 141: Preventing Armed Violence, Promoting Health and Development: A Medical and Moral Imperative](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56814a9d550346895db7aba1/html5/thumbnails/141.jpg)
Aiming for Prevention action-oriented research
• Measures immediate effects of armed violence (deaths and injuries) and the indirect effects (e.g. public health consequences).
• Measurability is central to the UN PoA and Geneva Declaration on Armed Violence and Development.
![Page 142: Preventing Armed Violence, Promoting Health and Development: A Medical and Moral Imperative](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56814a9d550346895db7aba1/html5/thumbnails/142.jpg)
• Ongoing collaboration with UNDP measuring the success of post-conflict disarmament process in Bougainville.
Aiming for Prevention workshop
• Outline the method for action-oriented research.
