New notification feature for your favorite shows

Radio Blau has developed a new feature with which you can now get notified when your favorite programs are being broadcasted. As a community radio station with its many different and sometimes irregular shows, these reminders ensure that you never miss a program that is close to your heart. At www.radioblau.de/en/reminder you can subscribe to up to 10 programs, which will then be displayed in your digital calendar, every time when they are on air. If you want to subscribe to more than 10 shows, simply repeat the process with the shows that you didn’t have in the first package. We would like to thank our web admin Jakob Wierzba for the innovative development, the Saxon State Media Authority for Private Broadcasting and New Media for the funding, which is co-financed by tax revenue on the basis of the budget approved by the Saxon State Parliament.

“Listen…!”

Our project series “Listen…” is entering a new round! In two live broadcasts from places where refugees can meet and receive counselling, we want to let the voices and opinions of those affected have their say. The programme on 28.11. is about the work of a self-organised asylum advice centre Space and the typical issues there. The programme on 4 December from Mühlstraße e.V. is about the current portrayal of migrants in the media and how those who are being talked about are doing and how they feel about it. The elaborate preparation and realisation of these live discussion rounds is funded by the Saxon State Media Authority.

We are setting up a new refugee editorial team. We have been able to hire a wonderful new member of staff for this, Alena. She will be inviting you to a first open meeting in our radio studios very soon. She can also support refugees in making radio programmes. You can reach her at interkultur@radioblau.de in English, Arabic and German.
