About Radio Guelma

Radio Guelma (in Arabic, إذاعة قالمة) is an Algerian local public radio station broadcasting from Guelma, a city in the capital of Guelma Province, that broadcasts a 24-hour schedule, primarily in Arabic (Standard and Algerian Dialect), with some segments occasionally in French or Tamazight depending on the program context. It is part of the national public radio network Radio Algérienne (the Algerian Radio), the state-owned broadcasting organization that operates a network of national and regional stations across the country. The station’s programming is designed to inform, educate, and entertain listeners with a focus on issues that are relevant to the daily lives of residents. It provides a platform for local university students (notably from the 8 Mai 1945 University) and addresses youth-related topics. One of the station’s core functions is to broadcast local and national news bulletins. This radio station often features content that highlights local traditions, history, and cultural heritage. Radio Guelma is often the first point of contact for residents during regional emergencies or major local events.
