Pringles and crema inspire training design for HCR's new course
It's a ting thing
A number of years ago the word ting made its way into my vocabulary. Google it and you'll find it is a wireless service provider for cell phone services, a carbonated grapefruit drink, a way of saying 'thing' and more. But the Chinese character for ting grabbed my attention when I learned the separate characters for eyes, ears, attention, king and open heart--when combined--form the verb to listen or obey.
Radio a key to health literacy in Pakistan
First Response Radio Training in the Philippines
The concept for First Response Radio was developed by HCR in 2001 and first deployed after the 2004 tsunami in Banda Aceh, Indonesia. The Rapid Response Radio Unit (RRRU), as it was then called, is a portable radio broadcasting system small enough to fit in a suitcase with a team of radio producers specifically trained to quickly broadcast critical information to communities following a disaster. FRR and HCR continue to contribute to each other's activities in training design, training delivery, deployment and research and evaluation.
