Background:

The Radio serial drama (RSD), Rope Guna Fal (RFG) Project is being implemented to address the themes of child marriage and positive parenting along with adolescent pregnancy in partnership with UNICEF, Population Media Centre, and Antenna Foundation Nepal. 

This project is being specifically targeted in Sudhur-paschim, Karnali, and Lumbini provinces as well as in the other provinces of Nepal. RGF has been broadcasting through more than 90 radio stations from 20th of September 2021. The radio serial drama considers multiple social and health issues such as positive parenting (i.e. early learning and stimulation, nutrients, health, care and nurture, safety & protection) gender based violence, sexual reproductive health, family planning, and early child marriage with the goal of improving the lives of different divisions of the population (i.e. men, women, boys, girls, youth). 

The Project intends to conduct random digit dial telephone surveys to know the progress of drama series throughout the implementation phase. The project will also use in-depth interviews to get a deeper understanding of how the audience perceives.
