Your world, your voice: Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Hindi roadshow in India's heartland


Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Hindi hopes to meet more than 20,000 listeners in a series of roadshow events across three states in Northern India.

Μύ

From Thursday 16 November to Monday 25 December, Your world, your voice is taking Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Hindi teams to 14 towns across Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and Jharkand, engaging audiences in lively debates broadcast live on the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ, together with other activities, including street theatre and website demonstrations.

Μύ

The debates have been inspired by local residents who took part in specially-commissioned research.

Μύ

Conducted by the Delhi-based rural research agency, Prastut Consulting, the research is based on interviews with decision-makers and residents at each of the roadshow locations and gives the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ invaluable insights into what really matters to its audiences in India's heartland.

Μύ

Head of Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Hindi, Achala Sharma, says: "We always keep our hand on the pulse of India: what concerns them, what their expectations are, what they want to change in their lives.

Μύ

"The special research we commissioned this year is a real treasure trove, giving us first-hand information which will form the basis of our roadshow debates as well as our programming in general.

Μύ

"All those interviewed for this research said that they see the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ as being able to influence change. That's why we are looking forward to meeting our audiences in this roadshow."

Μύ

Connecting with local culture, the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ uses traditional Kalamkari artwork throughout the Your world, your voice roadshow.

Μύ

Colourful street theatre will open each event with a dramatised demonstration of the values and benefits of listening to the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ.

Μύ

There will also be demonstrations of the bbchindi.com website.

Μύ

Simultaneously, Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ World Service has organised purely promotional activity in 34 towns of the states of Madhya Pradesh, Uttaranchal and Rajasthan using the campaign imagery and messages.
