"County Attorney Half-Hour" Radio Show
County Attorney Half-Hour showcases the ongoing work of County Attorneys – Liberia's rural State Prosecutors.  In a country where trust and understanding of formal justice mechanisms is weak, the program allows ordinary people to learn about the prosecutors every day activities.  In doing so, the program challenges popular misconceptions of formal justice and fosters inclusiveness.
