EIN EINZIGARTIGES EUROPÄISCHES RADIO-NETZWERK
Die Projektpartnerschaft besteht aus 6 Radio-Netzwerken (auf nationaler Ebene von jeweils einer Projektpartnerorganisation koordiniert), die insgesamt 6 Regionen abdecken: Andalusien, Lombardei, Leinster, Baden-Württemberg, Mittelungarn und Mittelslowenien. Die 123 am Projekt beteiligten Radiosender haben ein Publikum von geschätzt über 4,6 Millionen Zuhörer*innen.
Die 6 Projektpartner verfügen über umfangreiche Erfahrung in der Verwaltung und Umsetzung europäischer Projekte. Alle waren bereits Partner des Projekts “Respect Words – Ethical Journalism against Hate Speech“, das von der GD Justiz finanziert und zwischen 2016 und 2018 in 8 Ländern durchgeführt wurde.
Darüber hinaus arbeiten diese Organisationen seit Jahren gemeinsam an groß angelegten Initiativen zur öffentlichen Kommunikation rund um Themen, die die zentralen europäischen Werte und politischen Prioritäten widerspiegeln: kulturelle Vielfalt, Kampf gegen Fremdenfeindlichkeit, Gleichstellung der Geschlechter, ökologischer Wandel usw.
The Andalusian Association of Municipal and Community Radio and Television Stations (EMA-RTV) is a non-profit association that brings together 88 local public and citizen media (radio and television stations) throughout Andalusia.
Radio, television, multimedia, international cooperation, training and solidarity initiatives; EMA-RTV is the first radio and audiovisual network in Andalusia. Born in 1984 from the will of the municipalities and civil society, it acts as a catalyst for social concerns in Andalusia. The network broadcasts under the Onda Local de Andalucía brand (OLA Radio, OLA Television and OLA on-line), which brings together all of EMA-RTV’s partner stations.
The hallmark of its broadcasts is its service to the public as a participatory channel. Its news agenda addresses a reality that has no place in the majority of the media and is open to new experiences of participatory communication with civil society.
The plurality and diversity of accents & cultures constitute the personality of a unique informative message in the Andalusian community and an international reference.
Two million listeners a day identify with a communication project assumed as a network of public and citizen media, in a territory with historical communication deficits. Thinking, telling and debating reality to facilitate the empowerment of citizens are the basis for achieving democratic progress and building fairer societies at the local level, aimed at satisfying the common good.
EMA-RTV is articulated through its General Assembly, where all members participate, and through the Board of Directors, represented by 13 city councils of all political parties, as well as a citizens‘ radio station.
EMA-RTV has promoted and coordinates the project Europe in my Backyard.

Radio Dreyeckland (RDL) ist ein werbefreies, unabhängiges Radio in Freiburg im Breisgau, das keine kommerziellen Ziele verfolgt. Gegründet wurde RDL 1977 als Teil der Anti-Atom-Bewegung und sah sich gezwungen anfangs ohne Lizenz zu senden. Daraus hat sich, insbesondere dank rund 150 ehrenamtlichen Sendungsmachenden ein sehr vielseitiger Sender entwickelt. So gibt es über 50 verschiedene Musiksendungen, Sendungen in mehr als einem Dutzend Sprachen, Kultur und Subkultur, Hintergrund und aktuelle Information.
Der Name Dreyeckland spielt auf die drei Länder, Frankreich, die Schweiz und Deutschland an, die am Oberrhein zusammenkommen. Er soll zum Ausdruck bringen, dass die Region für die Menschen, die dort leben, letztlich ein Land ist. Dies hatte sich auch insbesondere in der Anti-Atom-Bewegung im Dreyeckland gezeigt.
Zu empfangen ist RDL auf UKW, im Kabel und per Internet. In der Region hat RDL rund 45 000 regelmäßige Hörerinnen und Hörer. Die Homepage von Radio Dreyeckland wird monatlich von durchschnittlich 18 000 Unique-Usern besucht. Außerdem werden Sendungen auch mit über 60 Radios in Deutschland, Österreich und Luxemburg ausgetauscht, so dass für einzelne Sendungen eine weit höhere Zahl von HörerInnen erreicht werden kann, als nur in der Region um Freiburg.
Finanziert wird Radio Dreyeckland durch Mitgliedsbeiträge im Freundeskreis Radio Dreyeckland e. V., direkte Spenden und einem kleinen Anteil an den Rundfunk- und Fernsehgebühren, den RDL von der Landesanstalt für Kommunikation erhält.

Radio Študent (RŠ) is a non-profit urban community radio with complete editorial independence set forth in our Act of Establishment. Established in 1969 (by the Student organization Ljubljana) with a mission to give voice to students and under-represented social groups, RŠ is a staunch defender of its mission and therefore upholds the highest professional and ethical journalistic standards. We are an educational institution, providing free vocational training for young journalists, speakers and technicians based on our experience in media production. We strive to promote the values and importance of independent professional journalism upon new generations. We have over 200 active journalists in fields of politics, music, culture, science and education, fostering a culture of critique, in-depth research and reporting, journalistic integrity, credibility and pluralism of opinions. We are the only bigger media in Slovenia providing joint space for minorities and various other social, interest groups and communities.
One of our core missions has always been providing media space to students and other youth, various social groups, minorities and marginalized communities. Rather than speaking on behalf of these groups, RŠ provides the editorial and technical support needed for them to speak for themselves. This mission has resulted in dedicated radio programing by and for members of said groups with intensive inclusion of all of them:
- educating young generations of journalists in all segments of journalist work (reportage, interview, in-depth analytical reporting, investigative journalism, source verification, art and music critique, science and education specific coverage) and media professionals in diverse fields of radio, video and web media production (technicians, announcers, video producers, social media editors), as well as implementation of communication campaigns and organization of public events, ranging from expert panels to music concerts.
- student and higher education topics and communities (regular informative broadcasts on current affairs, interviews, commentaries and round tables, analysis of legislation and current happenings concerning students and broader educational topics, including all stages of education
- music subcultures (music sets prepared by over 60 selectors; broadcasts on neglected music genres in mainstream radios – metal, hard-core, techno, reggae & rap, blues, jazz, ethno, noise, trap, hyprepop etc.; music interviews and reviews),
- alternative culture (non-institutional art production in fields of visual art, new media, theatre, film, literature, architecture; diverse theoretical essays; radio drama; culture news and reviews),
- ethnic minorities (special broadcasts produced by radio-makers born abroad: Croatian, Serbian, African; refugees and migrants)
- social minorities and alternative socio-political groups (special broadcasts produced by feminist activists, stigmatized communities, homeless people, LGBTIQ, anarchists, local communities from different regions).

The Foundation for Civil Radio was established in Budapest in 1993 to support and popularize the cause of non-governmental and non-profit radio broadcasting. In addition, it was established to operate a local radio station in Budapest for the same purpose. More than a hundred associations, foundations and institutes joined the program initiated by the founders.
Currently, Civil Radio broadcasts everyday with the help of more than a hundred volunteers. Cultural-, social-, public issues, environmental protection events, community actions, conflicts are the central topics of our programming. About 100 volunteer programmers and technicians present more than 50 programs.
Civil Radio is unique in its effort to give forum to the third sector, i.e. representatives or members of the civil societies, NGO-s and community initiatives. Presenters of the radio cover issues of community interests including but not limited to questions of social justice, disadvantaged and disabled people, environment, consumer protection, ethnic groups, cultural events, anti-discrimination, social exclusion or hate speech. Civil Radio also tries to involve its listeners in making radio programs. Editors frequently invite guests and in that way the radio encourages civil society to promote and publicize their activities.
We are an independent radio station, we do not depend on political or economic interest groups. Sources for its operation are: work of its volunteers, funding grants and other forms of financial assistance from friends of the station, donations. This is an interactive radio station, listeners can participate in the process occasionally or as often as they wish. One of our main objectives is to “demolish” the myth of mass media and to prove that everybody – who has a message – can get a microphone and be an active member of our team. Civil Radio highlights the social life and civic associations of the districts, analyses the contacts between local governments and civic organizations, and reports on different NGO-support systems developed by different democratic governments. We discuss the local traditions and what measures are being taken to protect them.
