GPB joins marking of World Radio Day

The Georgian Public Broadcaster (GPB) joined the World Radio Day marked on February 13.

Proclaimed in 2011 by the Member States of UNESCO, and adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in 2012 as an International Day, February 13 became World Radio Day (WRD).

Radio is a powerful medium for celebrating humanity in all its diversity and constitutes a platform for democratic discourse. At the global level, radio remains the most widely consumed medium.

Radio broadcasting first began in Georgia in 1925. Georgian Radio has served the Georgian listeners for already 96 years.
