3CR is celebrating International Day of People with Disability on Monday 3 December with 12 hours of radio presented by 3CR's diverse community of disability activists and friends. Join us from 6.30am to 6.30pm, and hear about historic and current protests against discrimination, abuse and indefinite incarceration of people with disability.
Beyond the Bars is 3CR's live prison programming - broadcast from inside prisons across Victoria during NAIDOC Week each year, and presented by 3CR's Indigenous broadcasters. Join us for the launch of Beyond the Bars 9, a double CD of highlights from the six prison radio shows.
Yes, it's a sports show - but not like the others! Tune in Friday 5 - 5.30pm and join Trevor Grant (pictured) as he takes a look at how sport has been hijacked by the corporate world.
"Sport is another commodity to be bought and consumed
these days, and a roll-over, puppy-dog media, which often has financial
relationships with the biggest sports, ensures this process goes
unchallenged."
3CR is currently hosting 10 community broadcasters from Timor-Leste (East Timor). The group are here as part of a program run by the Asia Pacific Journalism Centre and funded through AusAID’s Australian Leadership Awards Fellowships Program.
The group have spent time at 3CR to experience community engagement first-hand, and to produce radio features on the Timor-Leste Diaspora in Melbourne for broadcast on their stations back home.
