About Us
Who are we?
The Commonwealth Broadcasting Association [CBA] is the largest global association of public service broadcasters. Its members are the broadcasters that communicate daily with the 2 billion citizens of the Commonwealth. The CBA continues to support and facilitate high standards of media production and broadcasting, including the promotion of arts, science and diversity, throughout the Commonwealth.
Supporting Public Service Broadcasting through Digital Transition is currently the key focus of the CBA. Facilitating member broadcasters to build capacity in a way that encourages and supports greater audience interaction is now a core objective of CBA-it is also a way of enabling the voices of Commonwealth citizens to be heard and their views and opinions shared in the spirit of media that is free, independent and empowering.
Who are you?
The CBA accepts radio and television stations from Commonwealth countries as full members. You can be a public or private, but you must be able to demonstrate a commitment to public service broadcasting. We also accept non-Commonwealth broadcasters, regulators and other related organisations as affiliate members. Membership is not open to individuals.
