8.                 Interview

The interview process is an integral part of journalism. Often it is the main source of information either for the preparation of news or for the presentation of a specific topic in depth analysis. The interview can be applied to a theoretical framework, because it is a skill that develops with practice and experience. Main steps for the preparation of an interview are:

These two parameters are interdependent, the better the quality the larger the file size, which was a real challenge for those who wanted to produce small files but without compromise to low quality.

10.           Types of radio emissions

Radio is by far the most accessible, economical and the most influential means of information dissemination. The way in which the sound (voice and music) is presented to the listener in order to convey a specific message creates the "shape" of the content of the program and prepares the listener for content. For example, the "dramatization" allows the listener to identify with the characters created by the voices and thus helps in the transmission of the message. The use of music causes the address of the radio as a companion for everyday activities.

The choice of radio types from a multicultural radio should reflect the purpose and the impact they want to have on the audience.

Every radio station has its own "radio sound". This particular sound is a characteristic of a multicultural radio station and differentiates it from commercial radio. The commercial radio targets its audience in order to sell advertising space. State radio serves the interests of the state, which may include the public interest or not, and depends on the country and the regime. The multicultural radio supports the interests of the community and seeks social change. Listeners should be able to recognize themselves in the multicultural radio sound the radio.

12.           Digital archiving in the media

The evolution of technology makes digital archiving an interesting possibility for everyone who uses computers. The archived information may open new possibilities for multicultural radios. Archiving maximizes the duration of information: eg speeches, hearings, etc. can be "captured" and stored and used whenever needed between organizations and agencies.

13.           Mentoring

Mentoring is the process by which a mentor offers support to another person. A mentor has knowledge and experience in a specific field and shared these with the lead person. Provides coaching career, offers instruction in areas related to work, recharge the tutee work, provides educational guidance and assists in management problems.

Mentoring is an effective strategy that can significantly contribute to career development for employees and provides a tool for the future development of their capabilities. In essence, it is an effective method for the transfer of professional, technical and managerial skills.

Mentoring is a highly effective and powerful tool to enhance personal and professional development of persons belonging to vulnerable social groups such as returnees, migrants, Roma, people with disabilities, long-term unemployed, etc.

Informal mentor - benefited relationships, tend to develop independently when there is true commitment among stakeholders.

 

14.           Public participation in multicultural media

Multicultural Community Media is one of the fastest growing in the world today, having particular characteristics that distinguish them from public or commercial media and community involvement is one of the most important differentiating features.

Multicultural Community Media is based on the principle of full participation of communities, by mixing their members in decision-making and daily operations as well as to harmonize with the real needs of communities.

Multicultural Community Media must come from communities and its planning will be controlled by the communities. The citizens should benefit from easy access to the multicultural media sources and material and his ability to make the material and sources accessible to the public and the citizens.

This means that the Multicultural Community Media has a duty to ensure the active participation of community members in its management and planning and informing them about the activities taking place.

These same communities are the most important source of the program. Through their participation,  the community members develop interactivity and interaction with the program, they feel their own, which will ensure continuity of the program.

The participation of community members also ensures the consistent commitment of the program to the needs of the communities that comprise it through the programmatic design of which:

·         Is it relevant to their problems and concern for the communities

·         Responds to specific development needs and information needs of communities.

15.           Volunteer support

The Multicultural Community Media acts as a multicultural center. The people who will be involved will be very uneven, drawn from all classes, nationalities, ages, and of course will have different abilities. Trying to group them so that they understand the common goal is important. If this is achieved it will be much easier to implement the active involvement of volunteers and the increased interest that there is a climate of mutual assistance and support.

Generally, the operation of a station as a multicultural center can be a healthy and necessary process. But it should operate within boundaries in order to avoid controversy and not to lose the primary purpose-that multicultural radio to "serve" the general society.

16.           Collaborative problem solving
