Nepal Earthquake and Audio Lifelines
Should the 成人快手鈥檚 coverage of Nepal have given greater focus to rural areas? And how 成人快手 Media Action's audio broadcasts are providing lifesaving information to victims.
Nepal鈥檚 capital city Kathmandu and its remote villages are starting the recovery a week on from being struck by a devastating earthquake. For some global listeners, coverage from the 成人快手 World Service has been informative and wide-ranging. But other listeners question why such a significant portion of the early reports focused on both Westerners in the country and climbers on Mount Everest. Senior commissioning editor Steve Titherington and Navin Singh Khadka, the 成人快手 World Service鈥檚 environment reporter who is from Nepal, examine the challenges of reporting from remote areas under treacherous conditions.
