*NEW* FOUR-WEEK COURSE OFFERED AT RFPI!
Radio for Peace International, in collaboration with the Institute of Progressive Communications, is proud to offer a newly revised
"Four-Week Course in Peace Journalism and Progressive Media Through
Radio".
This intensive course will be given on the premises of Radio For Peace
International here in El Rodeo, Costa Rica. Classes are taught in English
and an optional Spanish component is offered to those students who wish
to learn the language or improve on existing skills.
Courses will focus on these primary areas of study: peace studies, social
justice, human rights, the environment, journalism and media. Students
will also be given the opportunity to meet and interview individuals and organizations working in these same areas both here in Costa Rica
and abroad.
The cost for the four-week course is $1,700 (US) and includes all classes,
materials, food, lodging, laundry, transportation within Costa Rica and
special events including a welcoming party and graduation ceremony. The
first course session in 2003 will begin January 27th and will run until
February 21st, 2003.

HELP IS NEEDED
Please! Help us at RFPI!!!
We are always looking for new members to help spread our message and to
support our work and you can help us. Recruit a friend to become a new
member and introduce them into the RFPI family!
We are also sending out a plea for financial assistance. At the moment we
are still trying to get back on to high speed Internet so we can transmit
once again via the Internet and reach more listeners worldwide!!! We are
also in need of extra funding for transmitter repairs, as we have been
experiencing problems in the past few weeks. Without our transmitters,
we can't reach the people who mean the most to us - our listeners - so
if you can help us in any way, we would really appreciate it!
