Curious Minds

The inspiration of Curious Minds is bigger than ourselves.

We have recently learnt of another Curious Minds in Ghana, West Africa. Oliver, the Curious Minds Co-ordinator and professional journalist, has told us of their  group of young people aged 8-18 who are both the radio show hosts and the producers of the bi-weekly radio programme Curious Minds.

Oliver told us “The aim of Curious Minds is to help raise the awareness of children's rights among the population of Ghana, reaching out to the children and youth in our villages to sensitise them on the importance of education - in our villages, due to Child Labour , Child trafficking , Poverty, and HIV / AIDS many children are deprived of their education. The problems listed need to be looked at in our country and Curious Minds  has taken innovative steps through the media which will impact the lives of the youth beyond the individuals in the studio. Because radio is such an important medium throughout Ghana, reaching over 5 million listeners, Curious Minds is changing the way children and adults think about each other and communicate with each other.
