New season, new programs: Public Radio of Armenia is 90

“The construction of the radio station in Yerevan has been completed. The station will start operating in five days,” the “Soviet Armenia” newspaper informed on August 27, 1926.

The Voice of Yerevan was first heard on air on September 1, 1926. The Public Radio of Armenia celebrates the 90th anniversary today.

Yerevan is speaking… these words have been on the air for 90 years now, spreading the voice of the Armenian state worldwide. With a rich history, but always young, the Public Radio of Armenia celebrates the anniversary with a new season.

“We present more than 20 new programs, which aim to serve the public interests and enhance the legal awareness of the citizens,” says Arman Saghatelyan, Executive Director of Public Radio of Armenia.

“The schedule of the Public Radio will be enriched with new programs covering political, social, economic, healthcare and other spheres. New voices will be heard along the familiar ones, which, I’m confident, will become no less beloved in a short period of time,” he adds.

The respectable age and the glorious past of Public Radio of Armenia are both a source of inspiration and a great responsibility for its employees.

According to Arman Saghatelyan, the Public Radio of Armenia is not alone on the sphere. “On the contrary, it works in a competitive field and an environment where interests collide, where there are several factors needed to reinforce the success – effective governance, international experience and staff potential,” the Executive Director says.

He’s confident that the decades-long experience and the modern approaches of media governance are promising a brilliant outcome.

“The radio is moving forward with an aim of adding the socially-active segments of society to the list of its active and devoted listeners,” Saghatelyan says.
