World Radio Day is being celebrated with the theme “Radio and Climate Change,” highlighting the potential of radio to combat climate change and foster a more sustainable world.

The NMT Media Foundation stated on its social media platforms that radio empowers communities, amplifies local voices, and promotes greener solutions.

As a trusted and far-reaching medium, especially in areas with limited internet access, radio is crucial for disseminating urgent weather alerts and facilitating discussions on sustainable living and environmental issues.

The Foundation emphasized that in a world grappling with escalating environmental challenges, radio serves as a vital resource for educating and mobilizing communities to take meaningful climate action.
