The 10 journalists of Radio Sikoro - six on the left, four on the right. 


Five finalists (Soummou, Marie, Saran, Massitan, Safiatou) held a writing conference, a round table in the studio on the theme, "influence of social networks on girls." They went on camera one by one to introduce themselves and describe their motivations.

Remember, though the intern will travel, all the young women will benefit and are excited about the projects they would like to take on with their new skills.
