peace radio web site running

For decades, the DX community has known the phenomenon of clandestine
broadcasting and has developed excellent reference tools about this part

of the broadcasting scene. In the recent decade, even a wider public
took notice of hate radio. In oder to redirect the focus of attention on

the peace making potential, the peace education standing commission of
the world conference of religions for peace has launched a new
project on its website.

First results of the research can be found at

Dr Hansjoerg Biener, a short wave listener for 25 years, who already
runs an extensive site on domestic and international broadcasting in
German, is to document radio efforts working towards peace, democracy
and human rights. To be named on the peace radio site a station or
programme has to meet the following criteria:
-adherence to journalistic principles in its reporting
-humanitarian programming
-financial support from reknowned international sources
This exludes partisan and clandestine broadcasting as well as much of
the programming sponsored by single religious groups. It also excludes
some government sponsored broadcasting
which did or might have effects for international peace, democracy and
human right.
In order not to rely on official source only, Dr Hansjoerg Biener tries
to tap on the knowledge and experience of potential local and
international listeners. So suggestions and comments are very much
invited. (Dr. Hansjoerg Biener 14 July 2001)
