There are many opportunities to get involved at Radio Numydia.
If you are interested, please complete our Get involved form at the bottom of this page and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible.
We try to put out a range of programs to cater for the variety of tastes that exist within Kabylia, and we will always try our best to supply a platform for music and speech programs that may not be represented or covered by other radio choices in the area.
Broadcast Team roles – Presenters, Producers, Editors, Reporters for a range of shows from primetime Breakfast and Drivetime Shows to our weekly shows. We are also looking for people to get involved with our Arts, Sport and Local music shows. You may want to present a show in Tamazight or English.
Broadcast Team support roles – We also need lots of help with working behind the scenes at Radio Numydia – keeping our website, coordinating various other activities we are involved with such at the Next Big Thing, fundraising, etc.
Specialist Music Shows – Radio Numydia is well known for the diverse music broadcast at the weekends and post 8pm weekdays. If you are a budding DJ that has a good knowledge of the genre you like to play, get in touch!
Volunteering at Radio Numydia could not only give you a sense of satisfaction, new experiences but also new skills and knowledge to launch into a career of your choosing.
Registration and Administration Fee Structure 01st January 2022 – 31st December 2022
To become a member of the Broadcast team at Radio Numydia, one must first pay a registration and administration fee. Then, ongoing monthly payments are needed to pay enable the station to train and support participants, to keep and repair broadcast equipment, and to cover unavoidable costs such as broadcast and copyright licenses to keep the station running
New Participants
one-off Registration fee – $20
Monthly education fee – $10
Radio Numydia operates a $5 preferred ‘honor’ rate per month for listeners in Europe and America; if members can afford to pay more, then we would like them to do so, in the knowledge that their money is going towards supporting another participant from Algeria who can’t afford paying.
Payment
Once your volunteer application/renewal has been approved, you will be sent a link to a payment page where you can select to pay monthly or yearly via PayPal. We will accept a cheque in exceptional circumstances.
Failure to pay
Participants will be reminded at least one month ahead of payment deadlines. Failure to make payment by the deadline each year may result in suspension of your activities.
Failure to make payment within one calendar month of the deadline each year will result in automatic termination of your involvement. If you then request to be re-engaged, you will be subject to the New Participant ‘one-off’ payment in line with this statement.
New participants must make payment of the registration fee prior to the provision of training and engagement. Failure to do so will result in applications being dropped.
Affordability and other options
We recognize the importance of our role as a community resource, and that we must be an accessible, inclusive station for all those who need or wish to be involved. We do not want to exclude anyone from taking part due to their financial situation. We have therefore set up more measures to help those who may not be able to afford such an increase in fees, including:
Some volunteers may be able to pay more than we are asking. We therefore will include the opportunity for those that can afford to pay more, to do so, in the knowledge that their generous support will enable less financially able volunteers to continue to take part and benefit from all that community radio has to offer.
Separation of volunteers from Broadcast Team
Every volunteer has their own reasons and motivations for getting involved at Radio Numydia. Some do so for recreational reasons, some to get work experience, and some to build skills for jobs in music or media. Others simply want to contribute to their community and have their voices heard. The vast majority, however, are attracted to Radio Numydia because of the opportunity to be involved in broadcast output.
As result, we have traditionally suffered from a lack of back-office support which we need to keep the station running. To address this, we plan to recognize the distinction between these two teams as follows:
Broadcast Team: primarily involved in the broadcast output and activities of the station, for example presenters, producers, editors and journalists etc.
This team will include most current and future volunteers and will be subject to Registration and Administration fees.
Support Volunteers: primarily involved in the support functions and administrative tasks at the station, for example, administrator sales support, fundraising support etc.
This team will be considerably smaller and will require considerably less training and support. As a result, this team will not be subject to the fees.
We have been working hard to ensure that volunteers get better value from their involvement in the future and are working on improved training, access to better facilities and more staff support. We hope that in time, you will see the value that your financial contribution makes to the station – and the communities it serves in these tough times.
Termination
If, for any reason participants’ involvement is stopped by either party, fees owed will be returned within one calendar month. Fees owed will consist of the amount paid in full for a year in advance less pro-rata period in full calendar months. If participants’ involvement is stopped mid-month, fees owed will not include the rest of that calendar month.
Review
This statement will be reviewed in June 2022.
