About the station
Jambo! Radio is the African and Caribbean radio station in Scotland, operated by a non-profit organisation (SCIO, charity number SC053499) based in Glasgow. According to its own description, the station uses radio, podcasts, video and digital media to pick up voices that are underrepresented in the media, and is aimed particularly at African and Caribbean communities, refugees and newly arrived Scots, as well as young people.
The focus is less on the programme than on training: volunteers and interns learn presenting, journalism, podcasting and video production, and programmes are created by community members themselves. The music the station plays ranges from the cultures of Africa and the Caribbean to their diaspora in Scotland. A key focus is on cultural and heritage projects as well as topics related to health and mental well-being.
