On November 16
and 17, the 3rd edition of the international forum Media &
Culture Days was hosted in Bucharest, an event co-organized by the Asia-Pacific
Broadcasting Union and the Romanian Radio Broadcasting Corporation. The event
is part of a larger series celebrating 95 years since the first broadcast of
Radio Romania, on November 1, 1928.

This year’s
conference, titled Diverse and distinctive: How culture powers public service
media, will examine high value cultural content, diversity, and inclusion,
with particular focus on broadcasting for national, regional and local
communities. The conference aims to reinforce PSM’s core value as cohesive
cultural engines, able to gather people around their common values, roots,
heritage and diverse identities, and provide possible answers to our concerns
and projections towards an increasingly globalized future.

On the sidelines
of the conference, Adelina Tocitu from Bucharest FM spoke to a number of the
participants.
