RIU - Research Into Use
 
 
Shamba Shape Up
Overview

In 2007 RIU was approach by Mediae requesting funding for a pilot television programme called Shamba Shape Up. The idea was simple. The producers felt that using a make-over style programme could be an effective way of targeting East Africa's rapidly growing rural and peri-urban TV audience and delivering effective agricultural and livelihoods messages.
