THE NATIONAL PERSPECTIVE


The CBF

The Community Broadcasting Foundation (CBF) is a non-profit funding agency providing support to the Australian community broadcasting sector through the allocation of grants for development, programming and infrastructure.

CBF grants with specific guidelines are available for Aboriginal, ethnic, print handicapped and general community broadcasting station projects, as well as sector coordination and policy development.

Most permanently licenced West Australian community broadcasting stations have received CBF grants at one time or another.

In recent times, the CBF has also provided WACBA with funds for a training seminar and a website expansion project.

Detailed information about the CBF and its funding programs is available at www.cbf.com.au.


The CBAA

The Community Broadcasting Association of Australia (CBAA) is a national membership-based organisation located in Sydney. It represents the interests of community radio and television stations, and aspirant community broadcasting groups, throughout Australia.

The CBAA provides community broadcasters with advice and support on a wide variety of issues including legislative requirements, policy, tax, copyright, sponsorship, training, volunteerism and management.

It also hosts ComRadSat, a national community radio satellite service that distributes member-produced news and specialist programs across the country.

Once a year, the CBAA holds a major national conference for community broadcasters.

WACBA Executive member, Andrew Brine, currently serves on the CBAA's National Committee.
