“Awareness Raising Radio Campaign”

Radio has a potential to reach to remote audiences where television transmission is not yet available. This greater accessibility of radio increases the scope of mass communication especially in the developing countries of the world. Unfortunately, in Pakistan, the purpose of radio is limited to the music and entertainment only.

Q-1: Being the student of mass communication, critically analyze the scope of radio in creating awareness about ANY social problem amongst urban and especially rural audience in Pakistan. (05)

Q-2: Develop a layout of small radio campaign aiming at awareness raising regarding your selected issue along with your proposed solutions to curb the problem. (10)

Campaign Layout can be based on following components:

• Objective
• Scope of the problem
• Target Messages (at least 03)
• Communication Strategy
• Nature of Programming
• Budget/ Sponsors
• Expected Outcome

1. 

Note: Copied material will be graded “Zero.”
