For them, and for anyone else interested, I produce streaming audio versions of Studio Ijambo programs for our web site . The hope is that those Burundians with Internet access, wherever they are, can enjoy Studio Ijambo's courageous journalism, insightful discussions, and entertaining dramas. Eventually, we hope to offer ongoing programming on this part of the web site, perhaps even recurring daily and weekly programs. In this way, the bridges can cross not only streams, but oceans. The handful of programs we offer online today is a start.
Bridges take time to build, as hearts and minds take time to heal.
