Future trends for radio in Africa

The Wits Radio Academy under the auspices of the University of the Witwatersrand Journalism Department hosted the eighth annual Radio Days Africa conference last week. The premier gathering of radio leaders and influencers in Africa, shared the best of radio today and discussed the future of the medium in a changing environment. The conference is a platform where radio practitioners get exposed to new ideas and skills from the continent and abroad.

Radio Days Africa hosted a range of local and international speakers who spoke about the tenacity of the medium in a booming technological era and gave insight into best practices and future trends.
