Program description
|
It is a community radio station that operates in a restored factory. The radio broadcasts the national and international work of social organizations and is an alternative form of communication and reflection in comparison with the information provided by reports from the mass media. The project requires knowledge of the basic use of computers and audio processors.
The volunteer does not require studies related to broadcasting but a profile identified with journalism or the media or the radio.
