BBC Media Action
BBC Media Action is the international development charity of the BBC. Established in 1999, the organisation seeks to reduce poverty and provide information to people around the world, through media programmes and campaigns that inspire and inform. Since its foundation, BBC Media Action has worked in developing and transitional countries in Africa, Asia, the Middle East and Eastern Europe on projects that deal with issues of health, resilience, governance, education, environment, livelihoods and emergency response.
The Programme
BBC Media Action has been implementing a project called ‘Niambie’ in Tanzania since 2013 which aims at providing a platform that connects young people across Tanzania to support them to understand, discuss and influence decisions about issues affecting the quality of their lives. The project combines social media with a weekly radio magazine programme broadcast by BBC Media Action’s partner,
Clouds Media Group targeting young people aged 15 to 35 years old.
BBC Media Action has started work on phase two of the Niambie project, which focuses on supporting women and girls throughout Tanzania to access information and make decisions relating to their social and economic rights. The new phase will launch in 2020 and will include innovative approaches to tackling issues affecting young people, aged 15-35, with an emphasis on young women and girls.
As part of the monitoring and evaluation activities for the programme, BBC Media Action would like to conduct a baseline survey across Tanzania in January 2019 to assess young people’s knowledge, attitudes and practices with respect to major lifestyle, values, gender dynamics, diversity and gender indicators, as well as media consumption trends.
