The messages from Radio Ergo callers during the week 16-22 July 2020 show that the main concerns, depending on location and circumstances, were the ongoing invasions by locusts, damage caused by sudden floods, and the rising cost of living. Water scarcity and livestock diseases were also concerns in some areas. There were a few direct calls about Coronavirus, with one caller observing that general reporting about the virus had reduced.
The feedback platform is open for listeners to call in on the topic of their choice. We listen to and transcribe the messages received and compile weekly reports, as a way of sharing these local voices among a wider community, including national and international decision-makers and responders.
