World Radio Day
World Radio Day is celebrated globally on February 13 to recognize radio’s unique contribution to communication and information sharing.
Established by UNESCO in 2011, World Radio Day highlights the importance of radio as a medium for free, universal access to information. Each year, a theme emphasizes issues like digital transformation, gender equality, or media literacy. Events include discussions, workshops, and broadcasts that explore radio’s role in emergencies, peacebuilding, and cultural exchange. Community and public radio stations often invite listeners to share their stories and feedback. World Radio Day also serves as a platform to advocate for the sustainability and innovation of radio in the digital age.
