How can you design a compelling radio format or podcast? How can you reach your target
group with your (web-) radio programme? In this course you will learn about digital
recording, interviewing and editing and just as important how to train minority groups to
create a voice for expressing their cultural identity. Radio producers can learn from adult
educators about their practices and adult educators can benefit from the creative and media
experience of radio producers. Do you want to know and do you want to share your
experiences? Then this course is for you
