Happy World Radio Day!
Tomorrow, February 13, we celebrate the 10th UNESCO World Radio Day and with it more than 110 years of radio reception.
World Radio Day was launched in 2012 to commemorate the founding of United Nations Radio on February 13, 1946.
As it reads on the UNESCO's website: „Radio is a powerful medium for celebrating humanity in all its diversity and constitutes a platform for democratic discourse. At the global level, radio remains the most widely consumed medium."
On May 3rd, 1953, Deutsche Welle went on air for the first time with a shortwave broadcast.
