The ECCB broadcast its Children’s Connection Radio Programme across all eight member countries, reinforcing its commitment to youth education and financial literacy. The programme aims to provide accessible, engaging learning experiences for young audiences, fostering curiosity, knowledge development, and lifelong learning.
