Building A Community Radio Station From Scratch

Kelvin Doe, also known as DJ Focus, is a young self-taught teen from Sierra Leone, managed to build a community radio station, batteries and generators from electronic waste, providing news and alerts to his community without access to reliable information.

His ingenuity made him the youngest participant in MIT’s Visiting Practitioner’s Program in 2012 and earned him multiple international accolades. As a founder of K-Doe Tech, Inc., he continues to develop sustainable technology solutions, demonstrating how innovation and perseverance can transform realities even in limited-resource environments.
