A Newfound Interest

Pacia, a 17-year-old member of the H’Mong minority ethnic community in Laos, has not let her parents’ stop her from learning –even if they have made her drop out of school. On the contrary, she has attended several Plan sponsored training sessions for youth radio announcers. Each time she has interviewed a community member with an issue to include in her radio program she has learned something new. 

Pacia is a member of a children’s group in the Paktha District that has provided her with the knowledge and technical skills needed to run local radio programs. These radio programs are part of a joint pilot project between Plan and the Provincial Department of Information, Culture, and Tourism.
