5Years of Community Broadcasting
50 Years Of Community Radio Broadcasting
September 23rd marked a significant milestone in Australian media history—the 50th anniversary of the Whitlam Government's decision to establish community broadcasting.
This landmark Cabinet decision in 1974 paved the way for a third broadcasting sector in Australia, alongside the national broadcaster (ABC) and commercial broadcasters, giving life to the sector we are proud to be a part of today and allowing all Australians the opportunity to share their voices.
This decision transformed the media landscape, creating a platform for the underrepresented and diverse communities around Australia.
Find out more about the decision and what's to come for community broadcasting here:
