Site Layout
Feba online hosts an every growing number of items, from stories to news, videos to audio, and a variety of resources and contact information. We've outlined below how we organised all this to help you find your way around.

First, let's explain a few terms.

  • News Brief: Short reports of current events in the world of Feba.
  • Articles: Longer stories, that aren't necessarily time sensitive, written to give you an overview of a particular Feba issue.
  • Projects: Feba's work on the ground. Some of our core activities across the Feba world are outlined here, be it a specific FM station or a short wave airtime block, and supported by Feba UK.
  • Podcast: A series of audio or video files produced about a subject. These are like pre-recorded radio shows that are 'broadcast' over the internet. Feba currently has one podcast called Casting Hope, which you can listen to right here on our website, download to your computer (one by one) or subscribe to so they download for you.
