Near Media Co-op and Near FM wants you to take part in a new project

Intercultural Dialogue through Community Media

Participants will complete a FETAC Level 4 course in community radio and and form a production team to create a series of 13 radio programmes on the theme of intercultural dialogue to be broadcast on Near FM.

The project will run from early May to September 2012 and participants will be required to attend one full day per week for 7 weeks for FETAC training and thereafter 3 hours per week for planning and producing the radio series.
If you are an Irish or non-EU national interested in participating, please contact: Grace, Near FM’s Intercultural Coordinator: [email protected] or 01 848 5211
This project is co-financed by the European Commission under the European Integration Fund and is supported by the Office for the Promotion of Migrant Integration in the Department of Justice and Equality and Pobal.

The Near Media Coop is a democratic, not for profit community media initiative based in Coolock, North Dublin. Part of our mission is to provide an alternative to mainstream media by offering an outlet for those underrepresented or excluded through training and access to distribution facilities.
