[cr-india] review of campus radio stations

[sajan venniyoor]

On 13 Feb 2008, in a meeting in New Delhi, CEMCA faciliated a
questionnaire-based review of 23 of the reportedly 34 operational campus
radio stations in India. To quote the March '08 CEMCA newsletter: 'With a
view to ensure that the stations deliver the community service they were set
up to, the Ministry of Information called for a monitoring and evaluation
meeting of the functional community radio stations in the country. The
meeting, facilitated by CEMCA, revisited the original goals of the CR and
implemented an important decision by MIB which is that the community radio
stations would refer to themselves as "CR" stations rather than FM,
essentially to underscore the difference in purpose and content from the
commercial FM stations."

The raw data from this campus station review is available on the CEMCA
website - http://cemca.org/scienceforwomen/institutionaldata.pdf. The data
includes basic details of 23 campus radio stations, programme formats,
financial management, organizational structure, audience feedback and
programme planning.
