Radio Listeners Club Project
-That is the question I hate the most
This and the” why are you not married yet?” question
- You’re not a stranger so I’ll tell you
-Go ahead
-I see marriage as two people that feel comfortable with each other
but you've seen what happened to my sister Shireen
- yes, is there any update?
- we're still looking for a good lawyer because Shireen wants to divorce him
- I know a good one
The first time we heard about the Radio listeners club was during a training day in Ramallah
It was the very first time that we had heard about such thing
The main goal of the club is to let the society know about their rights and to raise society’s
overall awareness about women’s issues and their rights in such situations to avoid it in the future
- I just want to tell the court that i hate him so much that i can't have any kind of relationship with him
and he should agree on the divorce without any court sessions , how can he force himself to someone that can't stand him
- God Forbid, everything can be fixed
-Mom why are you insisting that i should forgive him ?
i don't get you
- I'm saying this for your own benefit
- How will it be to my benefit if i'm beaten up ?
The idea behind the radio listeners club is to raise society’s awareness by using new techniques
The techniques mostly used in raising awareness are discussion and lectures
So we thought of targeting youth and social activists through audible things that they can stir up a debate on

My experience in Radio Listeners club was very interesting,
because they used drama as a way in which to address women’s issues
A new technique, one of the most successful techniques used
It gives the listeners space to think about the issues and they inadvertently stick in their minds,
It’s very different to attending a lecture as a means of learning
Yet listeners still receive sufficient information from the points addressed in the discussion to
learn what needs to be learnt about these issues

To begin with this experience was fruitful for all of us
we noticed that interest of those who attended we noticed its effect on them
because it’s a new subject and something they haven’t discussed before
I think when the group started asking more questions and we realized that they wanted to have more information
Well, then we knew we had succeeded in teaching them what needed to be taught
inspired them to seek out more information
Most of the participants were either college students or recent graduates
Any subject related to women is usually not very well recognized or learnt about in society
It’s our duty to highlight it
There are things that we don’t know about
so we try to bring attention to those things and discuss them and make them clear to everyone
I’m engaged and will soon be getting married
Sometimes when I argue with my fiancé I try to use the things I’ve learned here to solve it
And it has been really beneficial to my life
I even try to spread things I learn here with my friends on Facebook and family
It was a very successful experience and I really enjoyed it
It has developed my personality in a positive way and I’m more confident now
Sometimes we disagree because we come from different backgrounds
Each one of us has their opinion which encourages us to go through discussions
And at the end we usually all agree on the same aims and message
and what are the rights and duties of women
Their Interest and desire to get more information and to disseminate information
that they take from the women center to the outside world is a great success
Radio listeners club works on promoting the concepts of discussion ,debate, and social change
