In this episode of the Decentered Media podcast, I delve into the motivations and impacts of volunteers in community radio. Drawing insights from the detailed blog exploring these issues, I discuss the reasons individuals give their time to community radio and the significant role they play in promoting local engagement and democratic values. From fostering diverse voices to enhancing community cohesion and civic participation, volunteers are the backbone of community radio, shaping its direction and ensuring its relevance. Join me as I examine how these volunteers contribute not just to the stations they serve but to the broader societal landscape, reinforcing the importance of community media in a healthy, functioning democracy.
