a context marked by security and socio-economic challenges, particularly in rural and border areas. <strong>The growing circulation of unverified content on social media and messaging apps is undermining public debate and complicating access to reliable information<\/strong>, especially for young people. This intervention comes at a time when <strong>the Chadian media landscape relies on a network of local radio stations, which remain the main source of information for communities<\/strong> but face technical and economic constraints and challenges related to the circulation of false information, which complicate access to reliable and verified information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Creating spaces for dialogue across Chad<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Since July 2025, <strong>Studio Hirondelle-Tchad has produced 27 editions of the weekly magazine \u201cVoix de Touma\u00ef\u201d<\/strong>, representing 54 hours of programming broadcast by 14 partner radio stations across the country. In terms of digital content, <strong>227 publications have been posted online, including 45 videos<\/strong> (more than 1.5 million views) and <strong>67 audiograms<\/strong> (more than 500,000 plays), extending the reach of the content beyond radio. <strong>Two WhatsApp groups<\/strong> for reporting rumors and <strong>a WhatsApp channel<\/strong> were created to combat misinformation and encourage interaction with the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, <strong>the project trained 38 journalists<\/strong> in the fundamentals of journalism and fact-checking, <strong>as well as 12 radio managers<\/strong> in information management and verification. <strong>It also provides material support to 12 radio stations<\/strong> (equipment and solar installations) in order to consolidate the Chadian media ecosystem in the long term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Studio has also launched co-productions with Chadian media outlets such as Tchad Info, N&#8217;Djam Post, and Sa\u00f4 Check<\/strong> to develop digital content and strengthen the verification of false information. In addition, <strong>public broadcasts and debates have been organized in the regions<\/strong>, notably in Mongo (Gu\u00e9ra), on the coexistence of farmers and herders and the use of social media by young people, helping to create spaces for dialogue close to the people.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group backgroundedBlock backgroundedBlock--green has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Priorities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Consolidate access to reliable and inclusive information via Voix de Touma\u00ef and the strengthening of the network of partner radio stations.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Develop citizen dialogue and media literacy.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Activities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Continue multilingual production, co-productions, and expansion into new priority areas, particularly in the East.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Deploy offline media and information literacy (MIL) initiatives in communities and train CSOs to interact with the media.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>In 2026<\/strong>, the challenge will be to consolidate the work undertaken as part of the \u201cResilience of populations to disinformation\u201d project.
