Abstract:
This one-pager describes a pilot project to capture the voice of orphans and vulnerable children in Monkey Bay, Malawi, with the ultimate goal of promoting and protecting their health. EQUINET worked with a local community-based organization and former commercial sex workers to produce a community radio drama by and for vulnerable children who are sexually abused and or lured into sex work. EQUINET is a network bringing together academic, government, non-state research centres, civil society and parliament institutions from east and southern Africa. It has built a forum for sharing knowledge and forging strategic alliances to influence policy and practice towards health equity and social justice. See http://www.equinetafrica.org/
