Contributions	Greetings to all those who, every day, inform and educate our communities, whether on the airwaves of a radio station or through the internet! I am Abouzer Nji-Siddick, journalist-consultant at AS Média in Cameroon, and on this World Radio Day (April 18, 2025), I want to celebrate the power of proximity: community radio does more than just inform and entertain; it educates and trains at the heart of the village. Driven and operated by the community itself, it broadcasts 80% of its programs in local languages, gives a voice to farmers and herders, highlights locally-made music and comedy, and dedicates shows to promoting women and youth. Present in 95% of rural areas, it provides immediate, verifiable information and practical support for local initiatives. However, our human, technical, and financial resources are often too limited: strengthening skills, providing equipment, and fostering digital partnerships are essential to continue this mission. Together, let us keep transforming community radio—and every digital platform—into a pillar of education, cohesion, and sustainable development!
