Health has been at the centre of Gurgaon Ki Awaaz’s broadcast since inception.
Our first partners in the area health were St Stephen’s Hospital rural outreach program in village Dhankot. Collaborating right from set-up in 2009, we trained a health worker in radio production and broadcasting, and produced a series of programs on health, especially maternal and child health.
Over nearly 11 years of broadcasting we have tackled various health issues, but the most satisfying have been the ones where the anonymity of radio has encouraged listeners to join the conversation, or where we have got tangible feedback of behaviour change.

As India completes nearly one month of an enforced lockdown, it has become evident that the stresses of losing livelihoods, and incomes, forced isolation and cramped family quarters, is leading to monumental psycho-social symptoms among people, especially the poor, which is also reflected in the huge spike in domestic violence and child abuse complaints in one month alone.
To provide a support system to our listeners at this time of stress, Gurgaon Ki Awaaz, in partnership with Rajbala Foundation, takes its on-going Udaan series, and turns its lens on counseling during the Covid-19 lockdown.

New Delhi: For nearly a month now, a government vehicle has been ferrying a young reporter from a community radio station to and fro her recording studio in Sector 31, Gurugram. Preeti Jhakra has been playing the all-important role of linking a large number of people, especially migrant labourers working in a 10-km radius around the studio, to schemes and plans of the city administration designed to combat COVID-19 spread.

Gurgaon Ki Awaaz takes up some of the most burning issues in our community and design radio campaigns around them.
In contrast to programs, which can be a part of a campaign, a campaign is sustained, collaborative, with detailed formative research, and participatory.
Our on-going campaign is the Covid-19 Campaign to ensure that verified, actionable, hyper-local information on Covid-19, Coronavirus, the arrangements being made by the Gurugram district administration, the restrictions to movements, the availability of essential commodities, and access to doctors and hospitals, is made available on a daily basis to our listeners.

Migration is an important focus area for Gurgaon Ki Awaaz as one of our key target audiences is the community of internal migrants living and working in Gurgaon.
Saara Aasmaan Hamara has been part of our program repertoire since inception. The series has featured first person narratives by people from our community telling their journey from their village to Gurgaon and their experiences along the way.
In 2016, in partnership with UNESCO’s Social and Human Sciences Division, Gurgaon Ki Awaaz started producing Saara Aasmaan Hamara as a series focusing on specific aspects of migration. In Season 1, we focused on positive narratives of migration. In Season 2, we focused on Music and Migration, in partnerhip with Archive and Resource Centre for Ethnomusicology, and in Season 3, we focused on the tradition of the Sacred Secular in various communities across India, again in partnership with Archive and Resource Centre for Ethnomusicology.
