The training starts by establishing a contextual framework, entailing discussion of basic elements of Communication Theory. Using practical examples and local knowledge it is emphasized that audio visual equipment must be viewed within the broader context of communication and development. To date, training workshops have been conducted for NGOs/CBOs in Western Kenya region, Central/Eastern region and Rift Valley regions. More than 90 people have been trained.
