Welcome to the Radio Program with the McGill Students Chapter of Journalists for Human Rights!

The radio program involves the organization and production of podcasts in conjunction with McGill’s campus radio station, CKUT. The process consists of research, community advocacy and learning the actual technical process that belies the making of podcasts. Based on your interests and the skills you’d like to develop, there are many opportunities where individuals can contribute.

The podcasts will focus on a topic related to human rights and incorporate various dimensions through conducting a series of interviews. Previous podcasts have consisted of interviews featuring activists, organization representatives and members of the academia who have offered their opinions on varying issues pertaining to human rights.

Should you have any questions, or if you would like to get involved with the radio program, please email us at jhrmcgill@ssmu.ca!
