Sauf entente contraire, [l'auteur] conserve la liberté de diffuser et de commercialiser ou non ce travail dont [il] possède un exemplaire.» AVANT-PROPOS Within the following pages, 1 examllle the l'oies, potentials and limitations of community radio. As a locally-based media which manifests itself on a global scale, it is defined within a myriad of social, communicational and media traditions as weil as varying legal frameworks. Community radio, as with other forms of citizen-focused media, has greal potential in terms of creating accessible spaces for community dialogue, social self'­ representation, and information and media democratization. The development of this media, however, is often hampered by dominant ideologies and practices of democracy. social communication, media use and media reguJation. Thus, the goal herein is nol sim ply to examine alternatives to these dominant ideologies and practices but to propose ways in which these alternatives can be integrated as functional social norms. The origins of this subject lie in a desire to measure the feasibility of a national media system based primarily on social communication and dialogue as opposed to currently dominant systems which are based primarily on commercial ideology. Inextricably linked to this inspiration is my own personal history in community radio which began in 1993 as a volunteer at WLFR (Lake Fred Radio). a college radio station in the woods of southern New Jersey. Since 1995, l have been a volunteer in various raies at CKUT Radio in Montréal, Québec, one of the many stations examined in this study. Throughout this time, r have variably observed the great potential of this media and the tremendous limitations imposed upon it and III emhodied by il. Among the hopes for the work which follows is that it serve as concrctc tool for the <ldvancement of citizen-b<lsed medi<l, if not the full realization of its vast potential. This study h<ls been conducted within the methodological rrwcro-framcwork or a "cross-border" comparative case study and aims to present a working mcthodological model that can be adapteu hy future researchers. Ir consists of two individual case studies examining community radio within the urban environs of Montréal, Québec and Montevideo, Uruguay. Within each self-contained case study, it will examine the self-perceiveu mies of comlllunity radiO. the historical development of these roles, the relationship between communications rcgulation and the identity of community radio <lnd the strengths and wcukncsscs of cach community radio system. A final analysis will compare the results of these stuclies in order to derive eommon theories on citizen-Ievel media use and examine common barriers to the c1evelopment of such media. The research eonducted for the creation of this thesis sceks to directly implicate and represent the diverse actors in the complicated soci<.l1 construct of community radio. It consists primarily of the qualitative al1alysis of interviews with community radio practitioners. the <lnalysis of past studies in this field and the analysis of telecommunications regulalory frameworks. ln arder to both broaden the representation of actors within the scopc of this thesis and to conduet research which inspires dialogue, interviews h<tvc oeen conduCled with local experts in the field of communications and community meclia and with regulatory actors themselves. It is hopecl that dialogue that h<.ls been brought about during this stuuy ancl lhal which will develop as u result of it will help close the gap between those in the privilegccl positions of regulating, observing und analysing society and those who <.lre more orten reguluted, observed and unalysed. As a work which will foeus. in part, upon regulatory transparcncy and purticipatory democracy, it aims to contribule actively and concretely to the é1dvancement of such ideals.

    DELEGATION FOR RELATIONS WITH MERCOSUR Report by Mr Sérgio SOUSA PINTO, Chair of the Delegation for relations with the countries of Mercosur, on the Delegation Working Party visit to Paraguay and Uruguay (1 to 8 May 2007), for the Committees on Foreign Affairs and Development _________________________ Brussels, 22 May 2007 LMG/nal CR\674212EN.doc PE 391.197 EN EN INTRODUCTION When the Conference of Presidents approved the Delegation's programme for 2007, on 14 December 2006, it included three working party visits. In a letter of 20 April 2007, the President of the EP, Mr Hans-Gert PÖTTERING, authorised the visit to Paraguay and Uruguay to take place from 1 to 8 May, instead of 10 to 15 September, so that the working party could attend the inaugural ceremony of the Mercosur Parliament. PARAGUAY Domestic situation In the 2003 elections, the Partido Colorado, which had been in power for 56 years, once again emerged victorious, and Mr Nicanor DUARTE FRUTOS, was elected President, with 38% of the vote. His campaign's main platform had been the fight against corruption. Amongst those brought before the courts are the President of the Supreme Court of Justice, a case of corruption and nepotism, the former director of the Central Bank, sentenced for fraud, and even ex-President Luis González MACCHI, accused of money laundering, who was sentenced to eight years in prison in 2006, thus becoming the first-ever President of Paraguay sentenced. Nonetheless, impunity remains one of the most serious threats to Paraguayan democracy. President Duarte's administration has succeeded in consolidating the country's democratic institutions and improving the economic situation.

McConnell Family Foundation funds projects in Canada that foster citizen engagement, build resilient communities and have the potential for national scale or impact. A Developmental Evaluation Primer Jamie A.A. Gamble Our vision at The J.W. McConnell Family Foundation is a Canada where all people have the opportunity to develop their potential and contribute to the betterment of their communities and country. Over the years, the ways to achieve this have evolved; what remains central to its purpose is the importance of community, how people contribute, and the Foundation's need to make choices in its granting decisions, to take risks, to learn and to be engaged with its grantees. In the process of developing and supporting programs, the Foundation has come to appreciate better the importance of innovation, the exploring of new and effective ways of addressing intractable social problems, and the challenge of ensuring that these new approaches are sustained.

  • Directory of California Ethnic Media, Which Lists Almost 300 News Outlets — Print, Broadcast, Digital — Across the State
    NOTE FROM THE PUBLISHER Ethnic Media Services, founded in 2018 to sustain and build on the work of New America Media, is pleased to publish our Directory of California Ethnic Media, which lists almost 300 news outlets — print, broadcast, digital — across the state. We are grateful for the support of key partners including California Black Media, ImpreMedia, Hoopa Radio, and the Center for Community & Ethnic Media, in compiling this list. The Directory aims to expand access to the sector at a time when communicating with California’s diverse communities has become more urgent than ever amidst the rollout of the 2020 census, the COVID-19 pandemic, and the economic turmoil it has generated. This Directory is a work-in-progress — in today’s highly fluid media landscape, we will update the online information monthly. Thanks to support from the Complete Count Committee Office 2020 Census and several national funders, we were able to expand our research and discover ethnic media platforms we never knew existed: podcasts, radio stations, weeklies, online news sites serving newly settled immigrants and long-siloed ethnic groups. The takeaway from our daily interactions with the sector is that despite the collapse of the business model that has decimated all media, the ethnic news outlets are determined to survive to inform and advocate for their audiences. Some of those outlets have been in opera- tion for decades while others are much newer. Their resilience is inspiring. Their role in creating an inclusive communications infrastruc- ture for this state is indispensable. We look forward to replicating the California Directory with a national listing of our ethnic media partners later this year.
