The radio was the most and only reliable media capable of disseminating remedial information for methods of curing and preventing the outbreak of animal and crop diseases. However, this mode of media faced the challenges of majority of peasant farmers not owning radios, and as a result, they did not access such services. In addition, the distance among the peasant farmers hindered people sharing such resources. Nevertheless, the mushrooming owning of mobile phones by the majority of peasant farmers made information sharing possible. It was in view of that that the integration of ICTs on radio programs, in this work abbreviated as II-RP, was envisaged to disseminate remedial information to peasant farmers in remote areas of Zambia. The II-RP, a mobile built system, allowed farmers and agriculture officers to share the awareness information and sensitization of methods of farming.

Awareness Information

Lessons learned from the community cyber security exercises showed common threads each community needed to focus on in order to improve the community's cyber security posture. These similarities were grouped into four areas of improvement called dimensions. The dimensions are awareness, information sharing, policies, and planning. The methods in which communities can implement improvement are called implementation mechanisms. These mechanisms are common approaches used every day such as establishing metrics, implementing technologies, creating processes and procedures, and conducting training and assessments.
