44 issue briefs and working papers and well as experiences from “learning by doing” in the field
Components 1.2 and 2. The preparation of the briefs will entail a rigorous review process that itself serves to communicate
with targeted stakeholder groups and to engage them in discussion on each issue and envisioning the way forward. The briefs will be published in the Daily Graphic newspaper as a Hen Mpoano series
with a listing of the Hen Mpoano advisory board members with each publication. Finally, events will be planned around the publication of each brief. These events will include: workshops;
ceremonies highlighting an accomplishment in the Western Region; press conferences; radio call in shows; or events surrounding international theme days such as World Wetland Day. The issues briefs
will also be printed in glossy handout documents for wide distribution. Summary of Key Tasks, Outputs and Targets: Component 3.1

Communications Programs The project remains strongly committed to communication at the Western Region and local levels.
Consistency of message, target audience, defined range and quality of communication tools and methods, deciding when to use certain communications tools and methods, consistent look and feel of
documents by all members of the team, etc. will be the continuing focus of the campaign. The Rural Radio Program will continue to be a key feature of local communications. In Year 4, the project will
implement the 16 remaining episodes of the radio drama, with radio magazine shows. Content will be developing to link with the issues that the project is addressing such as the issues relating to sea turtle
conservation and how specific behaviors to protect local sea turtles and observe best practices for fishing can create benefits for the community. This program links directly to the communications
strategy in promoting targeted knowledge, attitude and behavior changes – which will be measured by post surveys as well as listener groups.
Visual communications will continue to include the production of new billboard messages, thematic posters, Hen Mpoano calendars and support for local drama groups. Finally, Hen Mpoano will
45 support 3 international theme day events: World Environment Day; World Oceans Day; and World
Wetlands Day. Summary of Key Tasks, Outputs and Targets: Component 3.2
