Prince's Hidden Vault, Tackling Ebola

BBC World Service - Over to You, Prince's Hidden Vault, Tackling Ebola

Praise for the Purple Prince. And tackling Ebola through the media

How the documentary The Hunt for Prince's Vault got the world talking. And, how the BBC Media Action is training at-risk countries to tackle Ebola through media communication.

We hear from listeners who loved the documentary Hunting for Prince's Vault on the BBC World Service, presented by Mobeen Azhar. It was all about the search for the legendary musician Prince’s vault of thousands of unreleased tracks. The programme was a huge hit across Twitter around the world.

BBC Media Action producer Jacqueline Dalton has been in Togo and Benin training people how to use the media in the most effective way should an outbreak of Ebola occur. She spoke to local journalists and members of Unicef about the role media can play in an outbreak. And, Jacqueline speaks to Rajan Datar about the role of BBC Media Action (which has charitable status) and the difference between reporting Ebola as a journalist for the BBC.
