Information zur Sendereihe
We intend to create common spaces where everyone can express themselves without being discriminated because of religion, language, ethnicity, class, gender and/or sexual orientation. In addition, we cooperate with other people, institutions and organizations that also operate according to these principles.
The team in Graz consists of people with international history who come together in order to support each other, join diverse events, host workshops, gain and support empowerment throughout doing radio.
We aim to be an address for all people with international history who may have been forced to leave their homeland due to war, ecological destruction, religion, language, race, gender discrimination or economic difficulties. We want to amplify their voices and address common struggles.
