CKUW Returns from Halifax
Last week, four CKUW programmers attended the National Campus and Community Radio Association annual conference. Hosted by our Dalhousie University sister station, CKDU 88.1 FM, the conference brought together community radio practitioners from across Canada to exchange ideas on grassroots media. Workshops covered production skills, media training, social and cultural issues awareness, technical radio know-how, community outreach and organization, and a variety of topics of value to Canada’s community radio workers and volunteers.
One evening of the conference is always dedicated to celebrating excellence in community radio and various awards are given out. This year, CKUW received an Honourable Mention in the Community Development awards category for Bridging Cultures. Congratulations to the program’s host, Hilaire Ndyat!
