Idea to send:	Topic People-To-People Programs Content An epidemic of arrogance, ignorance, and corruption has made our federal government ineffective. The greatest failure of our government is poverty, disease, and conflict reduction (worldwide). There needs to be more people-to-people assistance. One of the best methods is "Radio Schools" to provide broadcast programs, in local languages, to teach self-help skills to impoverished populations. Foreign radio stations will usually broadcast these programs, and the poor will listen and learn to help themselves if provided with very inexpensive radios. Radio Schools are proven and effective, with one of the first being Radio Puno (in Peru), started in the mid-1960s. If our universities were given some added support, the students and facualty could provide many helpful radio programs to support Radio Schools. Foundations should be willing to donate radios for the desired foreign audiences. By such an effort, we can act directly to help reduce poverty, disease, and conflict.
