We’re committed to helping Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities connect and preserve culture by supporting community media.  In partnership with IRCA (now known as First Nations Media Australia), we helped to develop Smartphone apps to stream remote radio services.

Listeners from remote communities visiting or living outside the broadcast network, such as major towns, can access their home radio stations, keeping them connected with their community. For example, a Pitjantjatjara speaker from Pukatja visiting Alice Springs can continue to listen to radio in their first language via the app.

Thanks to our support, listeners can now access IndigiTUBE radio stations on their Android or Apple device, including Black Star Radio, CAAMA Alice Springs, Pilbara and Kimberley Aboriginal Media (PAKAM), PAW Radio Network, Radio 4 ‘Meriba Wakai’, NG MediaPitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (PY) Media and Top End Aboriginal Bush Broadcasting Association (TEABBA).

Community Broadcasting Foundation acknowledges the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung people of the Kulin Nation, the traditional custodians of the land on which our organisation was founded. We pay our respects to all First Nations people across Australia, including those sitting at the heart of community broadcasting. We recognise and honour their enduring connection to country and community and recognise Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as our lands first storytellers. We acknowledge the resilience and wisdom of First Nations people, honouring Elders who have guided in the past and those who continue to inspire us today.

Always was, always will be.
