Nearly 50 community radios from more than 30 countries from Asia-Pacific,
Middle East, Africa, Europe, North America, Latin America and the Caribbean
participated in this broadcast campaign, which permitted simultaneously to
improve the relevance and quality of the content of the participating
radios and to give a global exposure through the webcast. The campaign
archives include 90 programs and spots totalizing nearly 15 hours of
programming available in 15 languages and reach more than 5 million
listeners in communities throughout the world via direct broadcast or via
our archives.****

The campaign for the World Water Day 2012, coordinated by FAO, intended to
draw the international attention on the relationships between water & food
security. The special partnership between AMARC and FAO targeted nine West
African countries, among which Sierra Leone, Niger and Mali. ****

AMARC also collaborated with One Drop Foundation in order to raise
awareness and to mobilize populations in all continents to salubrious water
access for all challenges. "Teaming up with such a broad network allows us
to benefit of the world radio broadcasting potential and to reach millions
of citizens. Water challenges affect all the citizens of the world and this
partnership will allow to One Drop to pursue its awareness efforts for the
water cause", explains Lili-Anna Pereša, One Drop executive director. ****

*Through service to members, networking and project implementation, the
World Association of Community Radio Broadcasters (AMARC), brings together
a network of more than 4,000 community radios, Federations and community
media stakeholders in more than 130 countries. The main global impact of
AMARC since its creation in 1983, has been to accompany and support the
establishment of a worldwide community radio sector that has democratized
the media sector. AMARC advocates for the right to communicate at the
international, national, local and neighbourhood levels and defends and
promotes the interests of the community radio movement through solidarity,
networking and cooperation. **For further info, please visit our website

Montréal, 3 avril 2012. En guise de point de départ sur la route menant à
Rio+20, le réseau de l'Association mondiale des radiodiffuseurs
communautaires (AMARC), en collaboration avec l'Organisation des Nations
unies pour l'alimentation et l'agriculture (FAO) et la Fondation One Drop,
a organisé sa première campagne internationale radiodiffusée pour la
Journée mondiale de l'eau, le 22 mars. Vous pouvez accéder aux archives

Près d'une cinquantaine de radios communautaires provenant d'une trentaine
de pays d'Asie-Pacifique, du Moyen-Orient, d'Afrique, d'Europe, d'Amérique
du Nord, d'Amérique latine et des Caraïbes ont participé à cette campagne
radiophonique, qui a permis à la fois d'améliorer la pertinence et la
qualité du contenu chez les radios participantes ainsi que de leur donner
un rayonnement international par le biais de la diffusion sur le site
Internet. Au total, les archives comprennent 90 programmes et capsules
totalisant près de 15 heures de programmation disponible dans une quinzaine
de langues et qui ont atteint plus de 5 millions d'auditeurs dans des
communautés à travers le globe via diffusion directe ou rediffusion par le

La campagne pour la Journée mondiale de l'eau 2012, coordonnée par la FAO,
visait à porter l'attention de la communauté internationale sur les
relations existantes entre la sécurité alimentaire et celle de l'eau. Le
partenariat spécial entre l'AMARC et la FAO a ciblé neuf pays d'Afrique de
l'Ouest, dont le Sierra Leone, le Niger et le Mali.****

L'AMARC a aussi collaboré avec la Fondation One Drop afin de sensibiliser
et mobiliser les populations des différents continents sur les enjeux de
l'accessibilité à l'eau saine pour tous. « Le fait de s'associer à un
réseau aussi vaste permet de bénéficier du potentiel radiophonique mondial
et de rejoindre des millions de citoyens. Les enjeux de l'eau touchent tous
les citoyens du monde et ce partenariat permettra à One Drop de poursuivre
ses efforts de sensibilisation à la cause de l'eau », explique Lili-Anna
Pereša, directrice générale de One Drop. ****

projets, l'Association mondiale des radiodiffuseurs communautaires (AMARC)
réunit plus de 4000 radios communautaires, fédérations et alliés des radios
communautaires dans plus de 130 pays. Le principal impact de l'AMARC depuis
sa fondation en 1983 a été d'accompagner et d'appuyer l'établissement d'un
secteur mondial de la radio communautaire. L'AMARC plaide pour le droit à
la communication au niveau international, national, local et de quartier,
défend et promeut les intérêts du mouvement des radios communautaires à
