Audio media and young people: A long-term relationship to navigate
Research on audio media and young people has come a long way, from pirate radio in Europe to podcasts in kindergartens during COVID-19, in high schools and female youth podcasts to identity empowerment in the BBC. In times of political and social crisis, and more recently health crisis, audio media such as radio have been a source of resistance. Audio media have been a means of community building in difficult times and a means of identity maintenance and identity building, especially in minority communities and at very young ages. My presentation will attempt to highlight the history of audio media and its current position in relation to young people in Europe and the rest of the world.
