"Community radios in Uganda have to overcome funding hurdles if they must retain their original community service mission. Trying to imitate commercial radio in order to win the approval of advertisers is not in their best interest in the long run. Instead they need to believe in themselves, win recognition from the communities and NGOs working in the communities and prove their relevance. To grow the community radio space in the country, NGOs need to recognize the potential of radio in their work and invest in them too. Starting community radio stations or partnering with existing ones can help NGOs and CSOs engage communities better. Media training institutions should partner with community radio stations and promote them as facilities for internship for communications students, who can in turn train more volunteers in computer literacy and basic broadcast skills. Community radios need to constantly keep in tune with changes in the communities, become more attractive by widening programming to include segments on locally-sourced entertainment as well as making content youth-friendly. Last but not least, community radio stations need to network, strategise better and claim their space and increase their visibility by being innovative in their programs." (Recommendations, page 18)
