Today is World Radio Day. World Radio Day raises awareness about the importance of radio and strengthens networking among broadcasters and listeners. Now in its 13 year, the celebration is bigger than ever. This year’s theme, “Radio and Climate Change,” emphasizes how radio can improve the coverage of one of today’s most urgent global challenges.

Created by UNESCO, World Radio Day was first celebrated in 2012, following its declaration by the UNESCO General Conference. It was subsequently adopted as an International Day by the United Nations General Assembly.
