Radio FRO is an independent radio station, in Linz, Austria. Following the basic idea of independent radio stations in Austria, it provides open access especially for under-represented social groups, such as migrants and different ethnic minorities. In doing so, today’s broadcasting consists for about 20% of non-German speaking or multilingual programmes. Radio FRO also makes efforts to realise a poly-ethnic medial landscape, in order to reflect the inner diversity of migrants’ communities as best as possible
