In a significant and community-focused move, Radio Tauta is proud to announce a transformative shift in its broadcasting format, dedicated to amplifying the voices and stories of the Latvian community.
Starting 01 October 2023, Radio Tauta will cease its regular music programming and transition to a speaking-only format, ushering in a new era of meaningful conversations and cultural exchange for our Latvian listeners. This change reflects our commitment to fostering inclusivity and providing a platform for the Latvian diaspora to share their experiences, insights, and perspectives.
"We recognize the importance of creating a space where the Latvian community can connect, discuss, and celebrate their heritage," said Asatuurs Keim, Radio Tauta's founder. "By adopting this speaking-only format, we aim to facilitate dialogue, promote understanding, and empower Latvian voices to be heard."
This decision aligns with Radio Tauta's core values of diversity, community engagement, and the power of communication. It comes after carefully considering the needs and desires of our audience and the broader Latvian community.
Radio Tauta wishes to express sincere gratitude to its dedicated listeners and supporters. We understand this change's importance and are committed to ensuring that our programming continues to inform, inspire, and unite the Latvian community in the United Kingdom and around the globe.
To our valued partners, please note that we will work closely with you to explore new opportunities within this speaking-only format and create meaningful connections with our audience.
