Young people across the country will have their own broadcast platform following the launch of brand new community digital radio channel, SYN Nation, on April 2.

Following on in the style of 3ZZZ multi award winning Student Xpress series on international students comes Are We There Yet, a series of 8 radio programs talking with asylum seekers and refugees.

3ZZZ’s Student Xpress project has been awarded the 2013 NSW Parliament Multicultural Media Award for Contribution to Social Inclusion and Multiculturalism.

Student Xpress is a new eight-part current affairs series produced at Melbourne’s 3ZZZ, on the experiences of students living in Australia, particularly international students. To find out more the CBAA put a few questions to 3ZZZ Assistant Manager Jan Smith.
