At a time when press and media are going through great challenges and trials, university radio stations, both traditional or on-line radios, continue to make themselves heard. Which management models are used? To what extent? With what purpose, goals and audiences? Which are the challenges? How is digital positioned? How do radio and podcasts are included into institutional communication strategies in Higher Education Institutions?

On a day of meeting and shared reflection, HEI communication professionals, students and their representative Associations and the media partners are invited to share perspectives and experiences.

The key note speaker will be Mihaela Gavrila, from Sapienza Universitá di Rome and vice-president of RadUni, the Italian network of the University radio. Mihaela Gavrila will present her views about “Sounds and Visions of Universities. Radio, podcasts and multimedia in university communication”. The meeting will also include a round table with representatives of the university radios in Portugal and a case study presentation about “The future of Podcast” by Ruben Martins, the author of the first doctoral thesis on podcasts in Portugal, journalist atPúblico and university professor. The day will close with the signing of the Consortium proposal between Universidade de Aveiro and AAUAv for the development of a new Radio Project.
