Radio Committee

The Radio Committee is dedicated to advancing and representing the interests of radio within the EBU membership, which includes organizations that are focused only on radio and those offering both radio and television services. The Committee is also supporting the representation of the EBU Radio membership at the wider European level, advocating for the prominence, trust, and value of public service radio broadcasters and radio in general. The committee formulates strategic priorities for the radio sector, overseeing working groups that provide spaces for Members to exchange on key topics such as distribution, content, reach and format innovation.

Answering to both the Radio Assembly and the General Assembly, the committee recommends objectives for the EBU Radio Unit and oversees its activities. The committee promotes collaboration between Members and manages the allocation of the Radio Innovation Fund.

The committee’s 14 members are elected to serve a two-year term. The election for the 2023-2025 Radio Committee took place during the 29th Radio Assembly.
