Swinburne’s media students are partnering with Vision Australia Radio to create 10 Reading Radio programs that will be broadcast across the country.
Produced and voiced by Swinburne students, the stories contribute to Vision Australia Radio’s service for those who are blind and vision impaired through readings of newspapers, books and magazines.
“The students have been working on the programs all year and it’s a great way for them to practice their presentation skills and showcase their great work,” says Peter Marcato, Lecturer in Media and Communication at Swinburne.
“Vision Australia Radio provides an important service to the community, so it’s great to be able to work with them to provide a youth-focused program for their audience across Australia.”
Swinburne has a long history of supporting Vision Australia Radio, including producing a Victorian election night broadcast in 2022. The team is also looking to host a federal election broadcast with the station in 2025.
Each program will be broadcast at 6:30pm on weekdays across their entire network from Monday 6 January 2025 to Friday 18 January 2025.
