Here's a brief description of the project.

A. Bellsman Media is the 'mother' company registered here in the UK.

B. It owns, and runs the ongeaafrica media-in-development project.
C. The Media-in-Development Project: This is an online based development project
designed to use media tools such as radio (audio) and documentary (visual) tools, and,
focusing exclusively on the Africa development agenda, attempt to raise the level of
engagement of ordinary Africans, particularly poor, rural, marginalised continental
Africans with the continent's development agenda comprising programmes intended
to improve living conditions and living standards, at the national, sub-regional, and
continental level.
The Strategy
This will involve broadcasting of specifically designed programmes to inform and
educate, and to entertain. These programmes are grouped under the following
headings:

The Talking Africa Programmes

These are radio discussion programmes about African development involving
a panel of guests including ordinary people, opinion-formers, campaigners,
and academics among others, led by a host, and with, or without a
participating studio audience.

The Kutazama Africa Programmes

Kutazama is Swahili for 'Watch or Observe'. These are feature based
documentary programmes with socio-economic and cultural themes designed
to inform and educate, as well as entertain. Topics will highlight in-depth
processes rather than descriptions of accounts of themes and their relation to
development.

Wezesha Africa Programme

Wezesha is Swahili for enable or empower. This programme is about giving
voice to the voiceless. It is an online platform designed to encourage
conversations between poor, ordinary Africans speaking out about their
challenges, and triumphs, in their attempts to sustain themselves and to
improve their living conditions.

Financing the Project

The project will seek sponsorship deals for individual programmes under
strategies A and B. Strategy C, will also need sponsors, likely Internet
providers (for relevance) or any business with an interest in such a
programme. Sponsors must have a primary interest in the specific individual
programme idea or as may be the case prefer to sponsor a 'strategy package'.

The project intends to set up an enterprise which will have a direct bearing on
poverty relief programmes to provide a second source of financing while at the
same time supporting local infrastructure development as a means
to providing poverty relief through enterprise. Such an enterprise must be easy

and quick to set up, have the capacity to provide jobs for local people,
introduce and train local people in related skills, have a guaranteed steady
income stream, be easily adaptable to other areas, among others. A waste to
energy (biogas) enterprise is the choice. It 'ticks the boxes' listed above, and
provides more opportunities to overcome poverty and empower the local
community particularly vulnerable ones in many ways:
increased food availability through improved farming practices and related
agricultural services; improved conditions to enable healthy living;
awareness/education to enable informed decision-making, participation,
and ownership of local development programmes among others.
