Vision Australia's nominations

Vision Australia Radio has garnered five nominations in this year’s Community Broadcasting Association of Australia (CBAA) awards.

Each year, Australian community media organisations submit nominations in 32 categories highlighting excellence in broadcasting. 

Vision Australia Radio Manager, Conrad Browne, said the nominations were a tribute to the network’s ability to collaborate on projects and programs that emphasise the importance of representation and inclusion.

‘They demonstrate our commitment to providing the blind and low vision community with a voice. Whether we’re working in partnership with people and organisations beyond Vision Australia or with our staff, we’re dedicated to delivering content that reflects the diversity of our society.’

‘It’s an honour to be recognised for these initiatives by our peers in the community media sector and a fantastic acknowledgement of the talent and people involved at Vision Australia Radio.’
