Radio capsules and Panorama newspaper


As we were looking for ways to reach the Tec community, we sought which media would have a higher influence in them. We found out that Frecuencia Tec 94.9 PM is a radio station about creating awareness throughout valuable content that contribute to the development of a sustainable community.


We talked with Marco Antonio Cobos Cardona, the head coordinator of operations in the radio station, and he facilitated us the introduction of 11 radio informative capsules. These capsules main topics are focused on the diffusion of our project, showing the problematic that our city faces day by day with the contamination produced by e-waste. We also focused on giving the audience solutions about the right way to recycle e-waste, places where to recycle and how are the good disposal practices helping the process of recycling e-waste.


The radio capsules are currently being transmitted three times a day, for an entire month.
