UNESCO organises roundtable to mark World Radio Day

AMMAN —The UNESCO Amman Office co-organised a roundtable discussion on Monday, along with the Jordan Media Institute and Community Media Network, to mark the 2017 World Radio Day.

Under the framework of the EU-funded and UNESCO-implemented “Support to Media in Jordan” project, the roundtable discussion was held at JMI and brought together community radio stations from across Jordan as well as new community radio initiatives currently being supported through the project, the Media Commission and local NGOs, according to a UNESCO statement.

Participants discussed what it means to have a “healthy” community radio station that represents the views and diversity of its audience.
