GIS is the home of Sydney’s only Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community radio station Koori Radio, which broadcasts 24/7 to the Greater Sydney region on 93.7fm and simulcasts digitally on DAB+, with live streaming via the internet on Community Radio Plus App to the world.
Koori Radio has a ‘Live and Deadly’ cultural mix of Australian/International Indigenous and black music combined with talkback, news, current affairs, chat and community information. Currently it produces three weekly flagship programs broadcast nationally through community and Indigenous networks as well as national live broadcasts of major Indigenous events. It has an award-winning team of professional and volunteer broadcasters from a wide variety of backgrounds.
GIS plays a leading role in developing and promoting the careers of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander musicians, broadcasters, singers and songwriters. Its Young, Black & Deadly workshops supported the creative aspirations of under-18s in performance and radio broadcasting.
GIS is also a community-focused organisation in its outcomes. Its annual Yabun event on 26 January is Australia’s largest one day festival of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures. Its Klub Koori events are held in various venues around Sydney. The current business plan refers to both extending media platforms and touring as ways of reaching further into communities while contributing to the professional development of artists.
