How to build up the individual programme – and the programme series

• Based on the above presentation of the components of a synopsis, your main assignment in this Module 5 is to at first develop the synopsis for your full programme series.

  A worksheet with a Synopsis format to fill in, is available in the list of items available for Module 5

• Once this is in place, you should develop one synopsis for each of the first, say, eight productions in your new series. Doing this, helps you:

  • discuss and plan how to secure a gradual increase of the level of participation by your target group(s)
  • consider how to, gradually, step up the inspiration to change existing norms – for real sustainable change
  • clarify if you simply want to do a standard model for the programmes, or whether you wish to elaborate the use of new and different programme formats from time to time
  • decide whether you should embark on some elements that tie the programmes together like a parallel series of human-interest stories in the form of portraits or personal narrations; a mini-radio-drama or other.

• When planning the individual programmes, you see whether you wish to include in the programmes – besides from your community-member ‘expert on consequences’, also - ‘experts’ on public health issues. This is important to indicate so that you can including this in the work plan.

Being ready to go on air: what is missing?

At this point you need to identify who in your editorial team / collective will be the overall responsible, driving force. This may considered counter-intuitive in a participatory processes, it is, however, important. Not for the person to be the big boss, but to have one person staying on top of the work plan implementation.

Good luck!
