330   $aThis open access book breaks new ground by examining the significant role played by radio in empowering women in three Francophone West African countries: Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso. It examines the representation and perception of key themes broadcast by radio and associated with women?s empowerment in the three countries. Each chapter contextualises a specific topic in the country and then explores discrete aspects of radio?s provision. The topics covered in the chapters are women?s political engagement; women and finances; women and life within marriage; inheritance; women?s involvement in radio structures; and radio, internally displaced women, and trauma. Given the social, economic and political vulnerability and deteriorating security situation of the three countries, this book provides a timely and meaningful contribution to acknowledging and understanding the vital role of radio in women?s empowerment. Emma Heywood is a Senior Lecturer in Journalism, Radio and Communication at the University of Sheffield. Her research focuses on the role and impact of radio in conflict-affected areas, particularly regarding perceptions and representations of women?s rights and empowerment in Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso.
