OJEN on the Air – the Law and Radio Project

This resource lays out all the steps required to facilitate the OJEN on the Air – the Law and Radio project. In this project, youth participants collaborate with legal expert(s) to create a short radio segment about a pressing youth identified legal issue. The radio segment will subsequently be aired on a local radio station. In this six session program the youth will:

1. Choose a legal topic
2. Learn about the topic
3. Write interview questions
4. Practice reading the introduction, closing and asking questions
5. Record the interview with a legal expert
6. Listen to the interview and reflect on their experience
