I remember hearing a talk given by a Brazilian soap opera producer about the successful use of '' telenovelas '' as vehicles for public health awareness. I think he said there is a large South American educational organisation that focuses on learning/health issues through soaps. Can't find out what it was called. Also here is an interesting paper released by .Gov from 2009 : https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/358906/Report_How_Soap_Operas_Bring_About_Change_3March2009.pdf
