Youth Zone Programming
on OAR FM Dunedin

Youth Zone programming on OAR FM Dunedin provides the unique opportunity for aspiring young broadcasters to learn new skills and have fun while organising and creating their own radio shows for free.

There are lots of opportunities for new people to get involved, from being a guest on one of our Youth Zone shows, to presenting your own live radio segments.

If you want to get involved with the Youth Zone Programming, you can send an email to Youth Coordinator Arina at youthzone@oar.org.nz or arina@oar.org.nz

Youth Zone Programming on Otago Access Radio is made possible from the generous support from NZ on Air and the Otago Community Trust.
