Over the past two weeks I’ve had the privilege of working with a group of remarkable, determined and inspiring women at Near FM

These women decided it was time to step behind the microphone and see what they could do with it.

Community media is about making space for people to speak and be heard. Space where people know their voice matters.

Communities are stronger when more voices are part of the conversation. More often than not, voices do not simply appear in public spaces. They are fought for, invited, encouraged and supported.

On International Women’s Day, I am especially grateful for the women who are willing to step forward and be heard.

Have a wonderful day, ladies.
