Radio Jamana

Studio in Koulikoro

Radio Jamana is a cooperative radio broadcaster founded in Mali in 1992 and a member of Radio Bamakan . This is based on an amalgamation of several local broadcasters. Radio Bamakan is the first private broadcaster founded by Alpha Oumar Konaré immediately after the military coup and the accession to government in the so-called "Third Republic" .

Radio Jamana has ten recording studios . The most important and largest are located around the capital Bamako in the southwest corner of Mali, but at least one studio is also present in the other regions. Reception is possible within a radius of around 75 kilometers and ten hours a day.

The cooperative Coopérative Culturelle d'Edition & de Diffusion , which also includes newspapers and other print media, libraries and self-help organizations, emerged from the first independence movement in 1983. According to their own statements, it is a high identification factor for the local population, probably also for the whole of Africa. In addition, further training courses are offered that extend into many areas of life, but particularly teach reading and arithmetic; in addition, courses in law and computer courses.

The founding members include the then President Alpha Oumar Konaré, Abdoulaye Barry (Director of the DNAFLA, Direction Nationale de l'Alphabétisation Fonctionelle et de la Linguistique Appliquée), Diakite Sanaba Sissoko (personal advisor to the President 1999-2000), Abdoulaye Traoré and Traore Salimata Tamboura (General Secretary at the Collectif des femmes du Mali.)

An "audio newspaper" has also been produced since 1996, in which the important weekly news is recorded on audio cassette and distributed in an edition of 1500 for the large number of illiterate people .
