Greek Music Express: World Radio Day | 13 Feb 2024

Today, we celebrate World Radio Day with a collection of songs that include references to our favourite medium. UNESCO writes: “For many generations, radio has remained the most far reaching, easily accessible communication medium that informs and entertains all sectors of society. While in some regions it has been used to fuel hatred, divisions and conflicts, a lot of progressive legislation and regulatory mechanisms have been passed in many countries resulting in radio that broadcasts balanced news and programs and practises independent journalism in general. Increasing access to reliable information and reaching audiences in remotest parts of countries in different languages, regardless of literacy levels, have been some of the greatest attributes of radio, still to be surpassed by any other media”.
