What is 'Community media'?

A working definition for now (help improve it, if you can): Any form of media that is created and controlled by a community, either a geographic community or a community of identity will be featured on the site while commercial media, state run media, or public broadcastars will not find a place here.

This project will aspire to be as inclusive as possible, without defeating the original premise.

This website has no ambition to be the final arbiter of who is 'community media' and who is not. Perahps the community itself will decide! But we will need to wait and see how it pans out...

Community media is any form of media that is created and controlled by a community, either a geographic community or a community of identity or interest. However, if the fundamental premise of the media is to engage those groups that are categorically excluded and marginalized from the media-making process, it will be included on this website, even if it is not explicitly created and controlled by the community.
