A strategic change of direction is being implemented for SAT-7’s educational channel, SAT-7 ACADEMY. The steps are being taken mainly in response to a viewer survey carried out during the channel’s first year of being on-air.

The SAT-7 ACADEMY program Your Doctor equips refugees and displaced persons with the knowledge to handle medical issues teaching them to “be their own doctor” and helping them to help themselves.

Millions of people with disabilities in the region often face social marginalisation. SAT-7’s counselling programs send a vital message of encouragement to viewers with disabilities.
