Community broadcasting

Community broadcasting refers to radio and TV services produced and managed by local communities to serve their specific interests and needs. It provides a platform for diverse voices, local news, culture, and issues that mainstream media might overlook. Usually run by volunteers or community organizations, it encourages participation, fosters social cohesion, and supports local identity. These stations operate within legal frameworks that ensure accessibility and non-commercial content, making broadcasting more inclusive and reflective of the community’s unique perspectives.
