Relatable Radio, Rooted in the Local Community
World Radio Paris is a community-based radio station, broadcasting everything from talk shows, live events and music, to cultural and political news across France since 2014. As the country’s only fully English-speaking station, we’re here to help you get informed and get involved.
Community Bridge
We believe that the international community has the potential to contribute enormously to French life, and that French life has much to bring to those who embrace it. By bridging this gap between cultures, we can come to know each other better and build genuine, meaningful connections based on mutual respect.
Audience Participation
We are powered by the goodwill of our listeners. Our listeners are enthusiastic, curious people with a lot to share. We are constantly trying to find ways to break down the traditional barriers between our organisation and those we serve. If you want to get involved, shoot us a message!
Pour Your Heart Into The Mic
We aim to promote diverse, human radio that champions vulnerable self-expression. Our team is inclusive, and open to all who share its values. We champion those creating art, literature, music, and anything else that speaks to the lives we lead or the people we live them with.
DAB+ Radio
Since 2014, World Radio Paris has broadcast over the greater Paris region, Normandy, Cannes, and Nice on DAB+ (digital radio). You can listen to WRP on our website, on our smarphone apps, or on your DAB+ radio, all day, everyday.
Events
World Radio Paris hosts its own events, and platforms those led by other community organisations. Come along to meet other people who are interested in discussion and creative expression!
Local Advice
It’s hard to build a life in a new country. It can be lonely and disorientating. We’ve put together some tips on integrating into French life, and catalogued the many organisations that may be joined by our listeners.
Meet The Team
World Radio Paris is run by a diverse team of volunteers who are passionate about connecting people through radio. We’ve come to France from all over the world, think Ghana + Ireland + America! If you want to get involved, send us a message.
Our core team coordinates everything from production to publicity, and ensures that new volunteers feel empowered to make their ideas a reality. Our Board of Directors is made up of former WRP volunteers, as well as experienced professionals from across the country. They oversee decisions about significant changes to the station’s operations.
Radio Show & Podcast Hosts
Hosts are the glue that holds World Radio Paris together — they are the voice of radio shows like Left Of The Dial, and podcasts like The New Paris. If you have an idea for a show, send us a message!
