Pocket FM

Platform
Radio transmitter for crisis regions and developing countriesPocket FM is a
portable FM radio transmitter that enables people in crisis regions or
developing countries to communicate without internet, mobile phones,
television or when electricity is unavailable. Despite technological
innovation, local radio continues to be a vital source of information and
entertainment in many regions. Throughout the developed world, people use
television, newspapers and the internet to stay up-to-date but these
sources are not an option in rural areas of developing countries. At times
of disaster, war, and population displacement, local radio can provide
updates which help save lives. This is where Pocket FM comes in. Pocket FM
is currently running beta-tests in crisis regions and developing countries
such as Syria and Tanzania.
