Media outlets’ coverage shapes our fundamental understandings of current events and critical foreign policy topics.

The podcast provides a platform for sharing new research that is accessible and important to the podcast’s audience of researchers, policymakers, and the foreign policy-interested public. With support from the Corporation, Global Dispatches will produce and distribute forty episodes featuring experts in African and Asian peace and security fields presenting new research on foreign policy-relevant topics.

Project Title

For support of the Global Dispatches podcast to feature African expertise on peace and security topics

Date

Mar. 05, 2020

Duration

24 months

Description

Although African expertise is readily available on peace and security topics of regional and global importance, it is rarely included in global policy discussions and public discourse. At the same time, critical peace and security, and financial decisions impacting African countries are made primarily outside the continent. To amplify local analysis and raise its profile beyond Africa, Global Dispatches, an interview-based podcast reaching a broad audience of researchers, policymakers, and the informed public, is highlighting African perspectives on a host of critical issues.
