ABOUT RADIO TÉLÉVISION DU BASSIN DU CONGO
Radio-Télévision du Bassin du Congo (RTBC) is a communication tool of the Congo Basin Climate Commission (CBCC) created to support the efforts of the Commission’s member countries, in particular to improve the supply of environmental information in the Central African sub-region and beyond. RTBC aims, among other things, to address numerous challenges, including informing, educating, communicating with, and raising awareness among populations about environmental issues, starting at the local level and extending to the international level, including the national and sub-regional levels.
Furthermore, RTBC’s mandate is to build and convey an innovative narrative on the natural resources of the Congo Basin, presenting them in a new light that contrasts sharply with the old perception, which tends to focus solely on the conflict surrounding these resources, around which various battles have often been fought. The aim is to build a promising marketing strategy around these riches, which offer infinite assets and provide invaluable services to humanity, playing a vital role, particularly in regulating the global climate. It should not be forgotten that the forests of the Congo Basin are a source of food and medicine for millions of people whose livelihoods depend on them.
Without being exhaustive, it should be stressed that the forests of the Congo Basin represent a great cultural asset for many communities and are home to abundant biodiversity with iconic and rare species.
Beyond promoting environmental education and engaging communities on this issue, RTBC is both a diplomatic and advocacy tool. As such, it is committed to defending the interests of the Congo Basin on the international stage, particularly with regard to climate justice and compensation for conservation efforts in this tropical forest, which has become 2 the largest in the world in terms of its carbon sequestration capacity and ability to reduce global warming.
To play its role fully and effectively, RTBC intends to produce relevant content aligned with the challenges it has set itself. To this end, RTBC is seeking experienced presenters capable of producing broadcast content and delivering messages to raise public awareness on environmental issues.
