I’ve had a couple of conversations recently suggesting that there is not enough emphasis given in the UK to the UNESCO principles of community and democratic media.
I was reminded of when Vinod Pavrala visited SoundArt radio in the summer to discuss the ‘non-negotiables’ of community and participative media.
I was wondering how familiar people involved with independent and community media are with these principles, and what the ‘non-negotiables’ are for people involved in supporting media across different platforms?
