Editorial Comment: Why, you might ask, is this interesting to Americans? Well of course, we have a community radio movement in this country, and those broadcasters can use the guide too.
More importantly, we depend on a world of informed people, and believe in freedom of information. For the speakers of the vast majority of the world's 6,000 living languages, radio and television broadcast things they can not understand. The community radio solves that problem, with the broadcaster serving as a gatekeeper between the local community and its language, and the larger national and international flow of news and intervention.
UNESCO is the U.N. Agency that deals with communication and information, and it is important to us that it focuses on the community radio movement. With new, low cost, portable, easy to operate stations that movement is exploding in Africa and Asia, where it is most needed. JAD
