On 13 February, the Faculty of Communication Sciences at UIC Barcelona will be holding the first edition of ‘UIC Radio Day’, a special programme to commemorate World Radio Day. The programme can be followed live on the Faculty's YouTube channel, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

The broadcast will include a morning news programme presented by the journalist and professor at UIC Barcelona Francesc Cano. Afterwards, we will be able to listen to the entertainment programme Tot s'hi val (Anything goes), an initiative of Journalism and Audiovisual Communication students Marc García, Laia Bonjorn and Carlos Roiger, where they will talk to the dean of the faculty, Pedro Sigaud, and the rector of UIC Barcelona, Alfonso Méndiz, in a relaxed and laid-back style.

Next, lecturer Maria Fitó will moderate a round table discussion on Artificial Intelligence and Generative Voice, with professionals from the world of voice-over and journalism Albert Murillo, Sergi Carles and Marc Lobato. Later, sports news will be covered by third year students of Audiovisual Communication with journalist and collaborator of UIC Barcelona Kilian Sebrià.

At a quarter to twelve, one of the most well-known DJs and music producers in Spain during the 90s, Quique Tejada, will be interviewed, along with lecturer Isabel Villanueva.

The special programme will conclude with a debate with experts and professionals from UIC Barcelona to discuss the challenges and concerns of the world of communication, in a format similar to 59 segundos (59 seconds), the classic programme on Televisión Española.
