Rádio Brasil de Fato in São Paulo, Brazil welcomed students from two public schools in the Heliópolis community for workshops and discussions.

The radio station partnered with Unas, a local residents’ association, and Rádio Comunitária Heliópolis to bring over 20 students aged 11 to 15 to its studios. During one visit, the students simulated a radio program, debating the benefits and drawbacks of artificial intelligence in education and cell phone use in schools.

They divided into opposing groups, arguing for and against the topics regardless of their personal beliefs, and produced a thirty-minute program. Lucas Salum, a supervisor at Rádio Brasil de Fato, noted the students’ enthusiasm and ability to engage with the activity. Israel Silva of Rádio Heliópolis explained the visit aimed to show students the difference between community radio and a larger, investigative journalism station like Rádio Brasil de Fato.
