We invite you, Dear Chanticleerians, as authors, writers, and publishers, to join us in celebrating the
10th annual World Radio Day on February 13, 2021.
World Radio Day is celebrated across the planet!
UNESCO proclaimed that February 13, 2011 will be known as World Radio Day. The United Nations General Assembly adopted this year as an International Day as we celebrate 110 years of radio.
With the advent of voice-driven technologies in the publishing of content, radio is pivotal for authors to connect with readers either by podcasts, audiobooks, call-in live shows, and to extend marketing reach.
Accessible anywhere and anytime, radio reaches a broad audience. It presents itself as an arena where all voices can be expressed, represented, and heard – hence why radio is still the most consumed medium worldwide today.
According to UNESCO, radio is a powerful medium for celebrating humanity and constitutes a platform for democratic discourse.
One of the most widely consumed medium at the global level, radio has the ability to reach out to the widest audience, in the process having the ability to shape a society’s experience of diversity and providing a platform for everyone to be represented and heard.
This year’s theme is New World, New Radio – an ode to the resilience of radio.
Radio continuously adapts and innovates as technologies and needs change.
When the world changes, radio connects.
The 3 themes of World Radio Day 2021:
- EVOLUTION. The world changes, radio evolves.
This sub-theme refers to the resilience of the radio, to its sustainability ; - INNOVATION. The world changes, radio adapts and innovate.
Radio has had to adapt to new technologies to remain the go-to medium of mobility, accessible everywhere and to everyone; - CONNECTION. The world changes, radio connects.
This sub-theme highlights radio’s services to our society—natural disasters, socio-economic crises, epidemics, etc.
Radio gives people from all walks of life an unprecedented opportunity to tell their stories to a global audience.
What could be more relevant today than staying connected by sharing stories while we self-isolate and social distance?
