About Radio Balad 92.4 FM

Radio Balad 92.4 FM (commonly known as Radio Al‑Balad 92.4 FM) is a prominent community radio station based in the capital city of Amman, in the country of Jordan, that features a broad mix of content from local cultural segments and interviews to news and social commentaries. It is widely recognized as the first independent community radio station in the Arab world, focused on giving a voice to local citizens and marginalized groups. The station’s emphasis on relevance to community life attracts listeners interested in both cultural content and meaningful discussion about societal challenges. Its motto is “Sawt al-nas wa al-balad” (The voice of the people and the community). More than a typical music or news station, Radio Balad 92.4 FM serves as a participatory civic institution that amplifies public voices, encourages media literacy, and builds bridges between citizens and the social issues that affect their daily lives. The station is governed by the Community Media Network (CMN), a non-profit organization.
