How to start a Community Radio Station 📻

A community radio station is a small, not-for-profit radio station or channel that provides local residents with information in the most culturally relevant formats and languages.

There are a number of steps that need to be taken in order to ensure that the radio station is able to operate effectively and efficiently. The first step is to obtain a broadcasting license from Independent Communications Authority of South Africa(ICASA).

This license will allow the radio station to operate legally. The next step is to find a suitable location for the radio station. The station should be situated in an area that has a good potential for listenership. Once the station is up and running, it is important to promote it to the local community. This can be done through advertising and by holding events.

A community broadcasting license grants non-profit organizations the opportunity to serve a community’s broadcasting needs for a maximum of four years. A radio station can cost between R450 000 and R 1.5 million to set up.
