How you can celebrate the day

Team up! It is a great opportunity to rally support and get key actors involved - Governments, non-governmental organizations, academic institutions, businesses, and young people - to focus on what has been done to further the World Programme of Action for Youth.

Organize! Hold forums, public discussions and information campaigns in support of young people focusing on youth issues and how they can be addressed.

Celebrate! Plan and organize performances everywhere to showcase - and celebrate – the fact that youth contribute to the societies in which they live. Convene exchanges and dialogues focusing on the rich and varied skills, interests and aspirations of young people.

Take action! A major focus of the Day is practical action to further encourage the empowerment and participation of youth in the processes and decisions that affect their lives. The media have especially important role to play in support of the observance of the Day to promote public awareness of youth issues.

The United Nations Programme on Youth is encouraging youth organisations around the world to host community barter fairs for International Youth Day. Remember, with bartering there is no money involved, only pure exchange of goods and services.

Email us your plans and ideas on how you will be commemorating International Youth Day in your country: youth@un.org.

Hope to hear from you

[creative-radio] Community Radio in the UK after 5 years: 'Broadcasting success story' at risk

PRESS RELEASE: 20 July 2009

'Broadcasting success story' at risk

The 20th July marks the fifth anniversary of
the legislation that enabled Community Radio to
start broadcasting. Since then more than 200
community radio services have been licensed and
around 150 are on air, creating around 400 jobs,
involving over 10,000 volunteers, and serving a
potential audience of more than 10 million people.

Ofcom's latest Annual Report hailed community
radio as "one of the great UK broadcasting
success stories of the last few years", but that
success could turn to failure if much needed
Government support is not forthcoming, according
to community radio groups and their supporters.

The Community Radio Fund is described by Steve
Buckley, Director of Sheffield Live! 93.2FM as
".. woefully inadequate" and he's heading a plea
for a fair share of Government funding
arrangements for broadcasting. Buckley says the
new sector is in a precarious situation: "Six
stations have failed to launch, three have handed
back their licences. Others are at high risk.
This is not only a result of the recession but is
a direct consequence of a failure in government policy."

An open letter has been written to the Prime
Minister, Gordon Brown, signed by 82 community
radio leaders, media scholars and experts
including representatives of 60 community radio
stations, in a bid to raise awareness of the
threat to community radio. The Government's own
assessment, in 2003, was that the Community Radio
Fund would need £3-4 million per annum, but only
£500k was provided in the first year of operation
and there has been no further increase, despite
rapid growth in the number of community radio stations.

209radio in Cambridge is one of the operating
stations that have been badly affected by
restrictions on advertising income and
operational delays from Ofcom; its Station
Manager Karl Hartland says: "There's an urgent
need for the community radio sector to be given a
more sustainable economic base, especially in
light of the work we do with communities in a
climate of shrinking public spending. To put it
in context, the money available today through the
Community Radio Fund to help support the
operating costs of 150+ community radio stations
is less than the annual salary of a BBC Radio 1 breakfast DJ."

Despite the plaudits and awards for community
radio, the UK financial settlement compares
poorly with our European neighbouring countries.
France, for example, provides around Euro 25
million per annum for around 600 community
stations. Community radio groups and their
supporters are calling for the government to give
a higher priority to community radio its social
and economic benefit by substantially increasing
the government's contribution to the Community Radio Fund.

Notes:

1. The letter is available online at
http://www.sheffieldlive.org/lettertogordonbrown

2. The Community Radio Order 2004 came into force
on 20 July 2004. The government is currently
conducting a review of the Order, as part of the
Digital Britain consultation. A public
consultation paper on the Community Radio Order
2004 was published by the Department for Culture,
Media and Sport on 16 June 2009, with a closing date of 16 August.

3. The government has published (also on 16 June
2009, as part of the Digital Britain
consultation) a separate consultation paper on
plans to ringfence 3.5% of the television licence
fee to fund local and regional news and other
essential public service content priorities. This
separate consultation on funding closes 22 September 2009.

4. The Communications Act 2003 provides, in
Section 359, for a Community Radio Fund. In a
regulatory impact assessment paper at the time
the government estimated this would not cost more
than £3-4 million per annum. It commenced in
2005/06 at a level of £500,000 and has not been
increased since. The number of community radio
licences has grown from 14 to over 200.

[creative-radio] Chart 92 PAS FM Tarakan Edisi 19 Juli 2009

Dear All,
Terima Kasih saya ucapkan kepada rekan rekan atas suportnya selama ini yang masih berjalan dengan manis. Walaupun 92 PAS FM berada nun jauh dari Jawa, tapi masih tetap menadapat perhatian dari rekan rekan.
Sedikit saya gambarkan bagaimana Tarakan sebenarnya. Tarakan merupakan sebuah pulau yang luasnya sama dengan Singapura. Seuah pulau yang kaya dengan Minyak dan Batu Bara sekarang sudah berubah menuju kota metropolis. Di pagi hari sampai Sore, Masyarakatnya disibukan dengan pekerjaan masing masing. Masyarakat yang sudah terkena gaya hidup dan tingkat kehidupannya sudah mengarah hidup konsumerisme tingkat tinggi. Gaya hidup dan bahasa jakarta semua diserap dengan cepatnya.
92 PAS FM Tarakan, sebuah radio yang merupakan pengembangan dari Radio Grass FM yang saat ini mengambil jalur full dangdut. Dan 92 PAS FM mengambil jalur CHR / AC, dengan membidik mereka mereka yang tidak bisa diserap oleh Radio Grass FM. Untuk itu bersama kiriman Chart ini saya kirimkan pula Profil dari Radio Grass FM dan 92 PAS FM Tarakan.
Catatan penting 92 PAS FM hanya memutar lagu lagu original hasil kiriman dari label maupun dari manajemen artis yang bersangkutan. Dan kami sampai detik ini tidak akan memutar lagu lagu bajakan (downloads) yang sekarang sudah banyak beredar di Internet. Jika ada pendengar yang request lagu tertentu, tetapi kami tidak mempunyainya, dengan bijak kami katakan bahwa Kami belum atau tidak mendapat kiriman dari label yang bersangkutan.
