Community radio and health promotion

By Tarcis Prado Junior

Can community radio stations influence the health of people within their geographical area? Can this communication tool make a difference in the health-disease process of a community? Is the fact that it is located within a given region, has members of that community as part of its team, and talks about and to that community considered an advantage for a community radio station (especially on health-related topics)? In this book, the author seeks to discuss these issues and also show, through the study of some community radio stations in the state of S o Paulo, that radio can indeed make a difference in a community's health process by helping to prevent disease, promote health, and also provoke debates on issues that can even contribute to that community's protagonism in relation to the construction of its own history.
