Rádio Comunitária Playlist
Rádio Comunitária in Brazil refers to community radio stations that operate under a specific legal framework established by Brazilian law in 1998. These stations are non-profit, locally managed, and aimed at promoting community interests, culture, and social development. They broadcast on low-power frequencies, typically reaching a small geographical area, and are prohibited from airing commercial advertisements, relying instead on sponsorships and community support. Their purpose is to provide a platform for marginalized voices and foster local participation in media. Community radios in Brazil are regulated by ANATEL (Agência Nacional de Telecomunicações) and must meet strict licensing requirements.
