With this project RADIO NOWHERE +: AN INCLUSION EXPERIENCE we promote, especially through integrated and innovative approaches, equal opportunities for socially disadvantaged adults and people with fewer opportunities. The specific objectives we hoped to achieve were: 1. To improve the competences of educators in the field of adult education in order to work on issues of social inclusion through radio, gastronomy and cultural diversity. 2. To do research on the local reality. 3. To promote intercomprehension and cultural diversity. 4. Promote media literacy. 5. To disseminate good practices of inclusion of migrants. 6. To make visible and give a voice to the different cultures present in our cities. 7. To promote and develop interculturality through events/festivities of different cultures, gastronomy and radio. 8. To turn our radio stations into reference platforms that invite the participation of groups that are underrepresented in society and to promote interculturality. 9. Promote active citizen participation in the 2024 European Parliament Elections. 10. Promote the Erasmus Plus Programme and European values.
The motivation for setting up this project arose from the need to give visibility to the different cultures represented in our society, normalising diversity and opening channels of participation to under-represented groups in order to promote their social integration. We detected the need to counteract, in an educational way and through social awareness-raising, the radicalisation of small sectors of society, which we have witnessed, encouraged by far-right parties that criminalise migrant groups, blaming them for the lack of work, criminality and the degradation of our heritage, and which end up leading to xenophobic and racist attitudes. We address the need to combat fake news through media literacy.
