Welcome to the CFC Website
Communicating for Change is a non-governmental media
organisation which uses radio, TV, print, market research, theatre,
capacity building, & special events to help change behavior and
attitudes about vital social and environmental issues from a distinctly
African perspective.
Communicating for Change has won the Special Youth Prize at 5th edition of the annual Lola Kenya Screen audiovisual media festival in Nairobi, Kenya for its film series, Bayelsan Silhouettes.
The Nigerian First Lady, Dame Patience Jonathan launched the Bayelsan Silhouettes, an HIV & AIDS, and Media Awareness campaign in Abuja on May 4, 2010.
