‘Pawankali’ to talk to children about Covid-19

Kathmandu, April 24

Save the Children, along with the Ministry of Health and Population (MoHP) and National Health Education Information and Communication Centre (NHEICC), has collaborated with a popular comedy show, ‘Pawankali’, to develop web and radio-based contents for children on the Covid-19.

The ‘Pawankali’ show will be aired from the coming Sunday, every Sunday at 7:15 to 7:30 AM from various community FM stations in Nepal through the Community Information Network (CIN), as well as YouTube, and other social media channels.

“Understanding the need for child-friendly content in popular media, Save the Children is collaborating with the ‘Pawankali’ show to communicate with children, as well as the general audiences on the ongoing Covid-19 situation,” shared Bandana Risal, the interim country director of Save the Children.

The web and radio content of the ‘Pawankali’ show will discuss issues of rumour management, mental health, violence against children, and education through localised comedy skits, and interviews with technical experts, celebrities, and children from different parts of the country.
