Description

Generaadio is an internet community radio. Our mission is to offer free speech and discussion opportunities for communities and NGO-s. We are currently serving communities at Tartu, but we also have co-workers and listeners elsewhere in the world. This project will launch a community media professionally and visibly in Tartu. The goals are to map potential cooperation partners, new shows and audiences;to establish the development plan and communication strategy in collaboration with partners; to educate existing and new volunteers in the motivation, fundraising, public speaking, in media issues and decision-making processes; and to begin the preparation work with community partners for the new innovative multimedia platform, which helps to carry the voice of a civic society.
