Letter from<br />
Our President<br />
Dear <strong>PCI</strong> <strong>Media</strong> Friends,<br />
Every day, <strong>PCI</strong> <strong>Media</strong> uses the power of stories to improve<br />
outcomes around human rights, environmental sustainability, and<br />
public health. But we don’t do this work alone; we produce stories<br />
with the communities we serve and partners like you.<br />
Every single broadcast, creative communication episode, and<br />
training guide is rooted in on-the-ground research, participatory<br />
design, and local cultural narratives. Connecting key messages with<br />
local stories helps audiences build connections to new information<br />
more easily, leading to greater, long-lasting change.<br />
Our My Community Methodology is a rigorous but highly<br />
adaptable approach that brings key stakeholders together to<br />
produce effective stories for each cultural context.<br />
In the following pages, you’ll see how we work with communities<br />
to tell stories that change lives, develop capacity, and produce<br />
change. If you aren’t already part of our community, we invite you<br />
to join us in our mission to create a healthier, more sustainable, and<br />
just world.<br />
With gratitude,<br />
Meesha Brown<br />

When men stayed at home, there were always fights<br />
because they wanted to have sex and we were afraid<br />
of becoming pregnant. But now we always follow the<br />
radio about family planning and maintain relationships<br />
with our husbands without fear. And the fights have<br />
also reduced because of family planning.<br />

I’ve never heard a program where a story<br />
is narrated and which shows what we live<br />
day to day on the farm. We are learning a<br />
lot and putting into practice all the advice<br />
of professionals.<br />

Central America<br />

The climate crisis<br />
demands action from<br />
all of us, for all of us.<br />
Sustainable<br />
Food Systems<br />
Issue: Climate change and harmful farming practices threaten vulnerable food<br />
systems in Central America. Sustainable farming can help mitigate the loss of<br />
crops due to droughts and hurricanes and increase crop yields, saving farmers’<br />
livelihoods.<br />
Our Response: <strong>PCI</strong> <strong>Media</strong> developed a radio drama and multi-channel<br />
campaign to promote sustainable agricultural practices in four countries<br />
of Central America, Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, and Nicaragua in<br />
partnership with Catholic Relief Services.<br />
Story: A three-generation family of farmers who work through familyconflict<br />
when the new generation uses new farming techniques in a smallagricultural<br />
community in Central America.<br />
Reach & Impact so Far: based on an end-line survey<br />
4.2 million<br />
listeners<br />
95% of<br />
listeners found<br />
the radio<br />
programs<br />
useful<br />
85% reported<br />
that they have<br />
started to adopt<br />
sustainable<br />
farming<br />
practices<br />

Healthy families are<br />

Gender Equity,<br />
Maternal, Infant,<br />
and Child Health<br />
Issue: In Mozambique children, adolescents, and women have high rates of<br />
adverse health and social outcomes. Cultural traditions that perpetuate unequal<br />
gender power dynamics and limited access to information on health and sexual<br />
health education are significant contributing factors.<br />
Our Response: Since 2015, <strong>PCI</strong> <strong>Media</strong> has partnered with UNICEF Mozambique<br />
and Radio Mozambique on a multi-platform communication initiative, Ouro<br />
Negro (Black Gold), that takes on these issues by providing access to information,<br />
creating the conditions for shifts in attitudes, and connecting listeners to the<br />
services they need.<br />
Story: Stories about a group of adolescent students and a traditional village<br />
leader engages mothers, families, and teens in Mozambique.<br />
Reach and Impact:<br />
According to a third-party evaluation from GeoPoll and Viamo:<br />

UNICEF Mozambique has been the initial funder and significant<br />
supporter of Ouro Negro since 2015. <strong>PCI</strong> <strong>Media</strong> co-created Ouro<br />
Negro with UNICEF, the World Food Programme, the Government of<br />
Flanders, MISAU (the Ministry of Health in Mozambique), and Grand<br />
Canada Challenges.<br />

“Unstained”: Sexual<br />
Health Education<br />
USA<br />
EMPOWERED<br />
PEOPLE<br />
Societies thrive when<br />
minoritized groups are<br />
fully included.<br />
Women<br />
and Girls<br />
Issue: Teens in the juvenile justice system are at greater risk for pregnancy<br />
and STIs. 50% of teen girls in the justice system experience pregnancy (HHS).<br />
New Mexico has a high rate of teen pregnancy (New Mexico Voices), which<br />
increases significantly among this group.<br />
Our Response: Our entertainment-education intervention is designed to<br />
reduce sexual and other risk behaviors. Reducing these risks leads to improved<br />
health outcomes for young people involved or at risk of being involved in the<br />
juvenile justice system.<br />
2023 Pilot Study Results: Among young people involved in the justice<br />
system who watched the mini-series:<br />
• 68% of study participants agreed or strongly agreed that the videos changed how they<br />
think about their sexual health<br />
• 87% of participants rated the overall quality of the videos as good, very good, or excellent<br />
• 72% of participants said they would recommend the videos to their peers<br />
• Results were maintained at the 1-month post-intervention follow-up.<br />
What’s Next?: The Office of Population Affairs has awarded “Unstained” a<br />
grant to undergo rigorous testing so that it can be cleared as a US government<br />
agency intervention to reduce teen pregnancy in communities with the<br />
highest need. “Unstained” is made possible by a grant from the HHS Office<br />
of Population Affairs and supporters like you.<br />
This project is made possible by grant number 1 TP2H000070-01-11<br />
from the HHS Office of Population Affairs. Contents are solely the<br />
responsibility of the production team and do not represent the official<br />
views of the Department of Health and Human Services or the Office<br />

When I finished my studies, I had nothing to do, so my<br />
father tried to force me to get married. Now...I learn a lot,<br />
especially about issues related to girls. I have taken these<br />
teachings to the girls in my community..<br />
