RadioActive Europe’s Public Project Report
Ravenscroft A., Rainey, C., Dellow J., Brites, M.J., Auwärter A., Balica, M., Rees A., Camilleri A. F., Jorge, A., Dahn, I., Fenech J. (2015) RadioActive Europe: promoting engagement, informal learning and employability of at risk and excluded people across Europe through internet radio and social media (RadioActive101 – available here)
The RadioActive101 Practices publication is now complete (in both PDF and EPUB versions) following consultation with all our partners. The report contains many of the common practices developed and refined by participants and RadioActive researchers across this European partnership over the last two years. And there are several examples of the significant impact felt by some of the individuals who became ‘radio-activists’ along the way.
