Bere Island Community Radio is part of the EU Grassroots Wavelengths project which aims to set up and study low-power community radio stations in a number communities in Europe.
Grassroots Wavelengths is based on technology which has already been tested in Uganda and allows for radio content to be created and broadcast in a very simple manner, using mobile phones and low-power radio transmitters that work on a very small radius.
The station’s first broadcast was in March 2019.
