Community Access Media Alliance is the national body for the 12 independently-owned Community Access Media stations across Aotearoa. Our vision is for Aotearoa to have a vibrant, diverse, innovative, and sustainable Community Access Media sector valued for its democratic, community, and cultural uniqueness.
Wanting to be a broadcaster, radio host, content-creator, programme-maker, show-maker, or podcaster? Our 12 stations can help you make your own media. On-air or online, radio is a simple and inexpensive way to talk to your community-of-interest in any language.
Whether you’re a government entity, NGO, non-profit, company, or organisation, we can help you tailor your messages to speak directly and authentically to your target audience – in their language.
Now more than ever, local voices need to be heard. We’re building a more inclusive media landscape — one where everyone has access to create, participate, and thrive. But we can’t do it without you.

Migrar no es solo huir, en muchas ocasiones es elegir. En este episodio conversamos con John Lookheart, profesor de inglés estadounidense que decidió construir su vida en Colombia después de enamorarse de una mujer venezolana. Lo que parece una historia romántica también ha sido un proceso largo, complejo y emocional: meses de trámites, espera, incertidumbre y la experiencia de ser extranjero en un país de habla hispana donde él es quien necesita adaptarse. John rompe el estereotipo del hombre anglo que solo “vive la experiencia latina”. Él quiere pertenecer. Quiere legalidad. Quiere hogar. Hablamos sobre identidad, privilegio, burocracia, amor intercultural y lo que significa elegir migrar cuando tu país de origen no te está expulsando… pero tu corazón te está llamando a otro lugar. Una conversación honesta sobre amor, papeles, paciencia y pertenencia.
