Radio Ndeke Luka ist das beliebteste und am meisten gehörte Medium der Zentralafrikanischen Republik. Es wurde 2000 von der Stiftung Hirondelle lanciert und sendet live rund um die Uhr und 7 Tage die Woche auf Französisch und Sango im ganzen Land mit 10 FM-Sendern. Das Programm wird von 12 Partnerradios übernommen und auf Kurzwelle gesendet. Seit 20 Jahren ist Radio Ndeke Luka eine wahre Institution im Dienst der Öffentlichkeit. Das Radio hilft, alltägliche und manchmal für die Bevölkerung existentielle Probleme zu lösen, in einem Land mit häufig wiederkehrenden Krisen und endemischen Problemen des Führungssystems.

Radio Ndeke Luka broadcasted its first program on March 27, 2000. It was developed by Fondation Hirondelle, to succeed Radio Minurca, the United Nations radio in CAR, which had just stopped broadcasting. In 2009, the property of Radio Ndeke Luka was transferred to the Ndeke Luka Foundation, an organization of Central African law, and was approved as a Central African radio by the High Council of Communication.

Radio Ndeke Luka produces and broadcasts 13 programs on daily life, debates, entertainment, music, and magazines. This content is produced by fifty Central African employees in Bangui and in the provinces. It is broadcast via 7 FM transmitters across the country, and 9 community radio stations rebroadcast an hour of Radio Ndeke Luka’s program every day on their antenna. Finally, the whole Central African territory is covered by two hours of daily short-wave broadcasts, through broadcasting via Canal Sat Africa, live web streaming and social networks.

Sylvie Panika, Director of Radio Ndeke Luka, in an interview for « Quoi de neuf », Fondation Hirondelle’s newsletter in March 2017.

•  Information that saves lives: « « Two examples come to me: on April 2015 an accidental fire was ignited within an IDP camp in Bambari (center-east of Central African Republic) by a child who had started a fire to prepare the family meal. The fire rapidly spread through the houses made of straw of this camp of roughly 600 people, resulting in close to 180 wounded and significant material damage. However the outcome would have been worse if the habitants had not immediately informed RNL, where a radio bulletin permitted a timely intervention from the government and from MINUSCA (the UN mission in CAR) to stop the fire, heal the wounded and offer tarps and food to the affected population. One year later, a cholera epidemic was declared in a village in the region of Ndjoukou close to the Congolese boarder, 100 km north-east of Bangui. We did not have a correspondent in the area. It was a priest that informed us about people dying in similar ways. Nineteen cases where brought up, and a dozen where almost fatal. Again in this situation, the broadcasting of this news by RNL permitted the information to circulate live, which then brought about an effective intervention from the World Health Organization and the government that took serious measures to put an end to the epidemic. »
