WEBINAR: Emergency Preparedness - 17 November 2020

Summer in Australia is always a threatening time regarding disasters and emergencies. In preparation, the CBAA in conjunction with the Community Media Training Organisation (CMTO) will provide broadcasters with practical advice on emergency broadcasting.

Increasingly community broadcasters are taking on the responsibility of providing warnings and other information to their communities in times of emergency. It is absolutely vital that community broadcasters provide accurate information to listeners from official sources.
