Although social networks have greatly changed the way information is obtained, radio is a means of communication that is still alive.

Radio allows us to do many other things while listening to music, political talk shows or entertainment programs. It has the great advantage of immediacy. It also accompanies us and keeps us company. That’s why we have to dedicate a day of honor to him.

In 2012, the United Nations (UN) General Assembly decided to declare February 13th “World Radio Day”, an emblematic and dynamic medium that reaches all parts of the world.

Why is World Radio Day celebrated?

According to the UN, the main goal of this world day is to make radio an interactive medium that stimulates discussion on various topics of interest to the community. In addition, the radio has the advantage of reaching remote places, which is not possible with other more modern technologies.

Each year, a central theme is chosen to celebrate World Radio Day. The theme chosen for 2023 is “Radio and Peace”.

It points to the urgent need to support independent radio stations as an integral part of peace and stability. It plays a fundamental role in conflict prevention and peace-building, promoting dialogue, reconstruction and reconciliation.

In The buyer of La Vanguardia We want to encourage you to celebrate this day, so we propose vintage style transistors that you will fall in love with. Retro models but with many state-of-the-art features.
