Introduction: The Mediation of Development
This Development in Practice special issue responds to the need for a radical rethinking of the theory, practice, and pedagogy of communication for development. This field may be designated as comm
The pedagogy of listening
A great deal of participatory development literature emphasises the bottom-up production of citizen’s voices and their incorporation into policy formulation, implementation, and evaluation. Rarely do we hear of emphases on the question of listening, much as there exists a body of knowledge on integrating what experts consider to be the views and opinions of local people in the creation of socio-economic policies. This viewpoint outlines the kind …
Critical reflections on the theory versus practice debate in communication for development
Even though the cliché 'theory is practice' registers in most communication for development debates, available evidence seems to suggest there is a growing chasm between the theory and practice of communication for development. This discussion argues that, with the increasing demand by governments and organisations for communication for development specialists, universities and training providers should rethink their graduate curricula. As course…
Models of and approaches to the station management of six African community radio broadcasters
This article is a political economy critique that contributes to current scholarship on community radio and development by examining the question of the management of six networks from Mali, Mozambique and Uganda. This discussion argues that understanding the models and functions of management committees will go a long way towards contributing to conversations on how community radios could achieve social, institutional, financial and ideological …
Researching developmental uses and formats of rural radio: A development broadcasting approach
How should scholars approach the study of the developmental uses of rural radio? What is the theoretical framework within which to locate the study of rural radio formats employed as development communication? To answer these questions, this brief critique develops a theoretical matrix to be used as an analytical framework for positioning any discussion of rural radio as a development communication pathway. Building on rural radio case studies fr…
The day development dies
There is a certain kind of thinking prevailing among Western thinkers which sacrifices rich narratives for theory. Theory becomes a prison, limiting knowledge production to references to (largely Western) scholarship. However, theory is not inaccessible: theory is coherent, theory is liberating, theory is narrative, it is everyday. This post-colonist auto-ethnographic orality uses personal experiences as a theoretical tool for explaining that in …
Mobilizing Rural and Community Radio in Africa
Modern-day Africa, like the rest of the developing world, faces increasing social, economic, political, and cultural development challenges, addressing which relies on strategies that have included the use of media and communications toward actively engaging communities in policy formulation and implementation. Radio has borne a huge share of this responsibility, because the medium is pervasive, local, extensive, flexible, available, readily unde…
Method and practice in participatory radio: Rural radio forums in Malawi
Participatory development entails the active engagement of the citizenry in the production, sharing and utilisation of relevant knowledge towards improving their livelihoods. For much of the developing nations, especially in Southern Africa, without access to electricity, telephones, internet and television, radio is the only reliable, affordable, pervasive and extensive avenue for information and knowledge exchange that the majority of poor citi…
The practice of participation in broadcasting for development initiatives in post-independent Malawi
What is broadcasting for development? What methodological approaches have characterized the praxis of broadcasting for development in Malawi? This exposition critiques, with reference to the notion of participation as expounded by Paulo Freire, some of Malawi\'s broadcasting for development initiatives designed and implemented since the country became a multiparty democracy in 1993. It explores the field of broadcasting for development by highlig…
