Radio Romania and the BBC are two
\norganizations based on strong values with permanent and important missions to
\ninform, educate and offer entertainment programmes to their listeners. Starting
\nfrom this, these two media institutions on Thursday concluded an agreement to
\noffer each other support in order to develop together. <\/p>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
<\/p>\n
The document was signed in
\nBucharest on the sidelines of the 5th edition of the Media 2020
\nconference staged by Radio Romania jointly with the Asia Pacific Broadcasting
\nUnion. According to the Deputy Director of BBC Radio, Graham Ellis, Radio
\nRomania is an active member of the European Broadcasting Union and that cooperation
\nbetween the two institutions is very important. <\/p>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
<\/p>\n
In turn, Georgica Severin, President
\nand Director General of Radio Romania said the partnership was the natural
\nconsequence of the cooperation and excellent connections between Radio Romania
\nand the BBC. <\/p>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
<\/p>\n
Georgica Severin: The fight against misinformation, the presentation
\nof information about the life and culture of public, how to adjust to new
\ntechnologies or how to transform our media organizations are some of the most
\nimportant themes of our partnership. <\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
The agreement Radio Romania
\nconcluded with the BBC isn’t the only one. It follows the ones signed with
\nRadio France and RAI and is part of Radio Romania’s strategy of cooperation with
\nEurope’s most prestigious media institutions. <\/p>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
<\/p>\n
Apart from the bilateral
\ncooperation, Radio Romania has very good relations with numerous public press
\ninstitutions from all over the world. And this is illustrated by the presence
\nin Bucharest at the end of this week, of over 40 representatives of some of the
\nmost important media organizations in Europe and Asia Pacific. <\/p>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
<\/p>\n
High on the agenda were talks over
\nthe media future in the digital world, copyright protection strategies as well
\nas fighting fake news. The Media 2020 conference, which has become a tradition in
\nthe dialogue between Europe and Asia-Pacific area, has compelled recognition as
\none of the most open and constructive dialogue platforms between the two
\ncontinents in the media field. <\/p>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
<\/p>\n
The conference is being held
\nalternatively in Romania and a country from Asia-Pacific area. Since its very
\nfirst edition, the event’s main aim has been to familiarize public broadcasters
\nwith concrete strategies meant to meet the challenges of the new digital era. <\/p>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
<\/p>\n
The year 2020 was set as a
\nreference point and the theme of this fifth edition was ‘Crossing Borders in
\nthe Digital World’. Also attending the conference in Bucharest, Javad Mottaghi,
\nSecretary General of ABU highlighted the fact that people need independent,
\nimpartial and trustworthy information. It depends on the public radios to say
\nthe truth and gain the listeners’ trust in this manner. <\/p>\n
