"The Peace Radio project was conceived in 2009 by the Resource Center for Civil Society Groups Association (RCCSGA) and Council of Nationalities (CoN) of SNNPRS (Southern Nations Nationalities and Peoples Regional State). The Civil Peace Service-Program (CPS) of GIZ is supporting the project financially and by technical support through experts since its start [...] The main objective of the peace radio program is to enhance the culture of peace in communities in conflict in particular and among the public with access to the radio program in general [...] Since 2012 the program has been operational in 12 Woredas of SNNP and Oromiya Regional States. In the second project phase, 20 listener groups with a total of 400 members regrouped into 10 joint listener groups in adjacent Kebeles of the two regions have been setup and have been actively listening to the Peace Radio programs. Apart from members of listener groups, all people within the reach of the radio signal coverage can listen to the program. An estimated 2 million people in both regions have been reached by the program." (Pages 5-6)
