description:
An audio platform for connecting migrant workers, called Tarang Vani, was launched by Gram Tarang. This is a phone-based facility whereby workers can send and receive messages from their friends or family. The worker dials in the Tarang Vani number, gives the number of the person he wants to send the message to, and records the message. Tarang Vani then contacts the person and delivers the message. Messages are in audio form, simple messages, letters, poems, songs and stories, sent by workers to their friends and families. The senders and receivers do not need to have smart phones, as the message transfer is done by Tarang Vani. The studio of Tarang Vani also records plays and messages on the themes of migration, women’s empowerment, etc. to convey to the workers. The platform is in Odiya language and has reached 6,000 workers so far.
