Programme Summary
Launched in July 2009, 100 Dúvidas (100 Doubts) is a BBC World Service Trust programme, produced in collaboration with Trocaire and Radio Ecclesia, which is designed to improve government accountability and give a voice to citizens in Angola.

One listener wrote, "I’m writing to you to congratulate you. I currently live abroad and I am thinking about returning to my home country, but I have been able to follow step by step the impartial, accurate, and high-quality news you are providing via the internet. I really hope that this programme will be successful and that it will allow the governing bodies to get closer to the person, which is essential in our country."
