Women’s Media Centre (WMC) of Cambodia is Cambodia’s premier non-governmental, non profit media organization working in the country. Provides information and awareness programs of issues affecting Cambodians, specially on roles and women rights. Since 1995, WMC is dedicated to promoting gender equality and women empowerment in Cambodian society.

 

Today, WMC continues to use mass media to promote social change in Cambodian society. The centre, ran by women as a majority, has become a foremost provider of public service broadcasting in the country. Through independent radio, television, video programs, WMC has addressed nearly every issue effecting women in Cambodia. Some of the issues include health, reproductive health, HIV/AIDS, TB, Malaria, trafficking of women and children, drug abuse, leadership, national elections, domestic violence, sexual assault, rape, land disputes and conflict resolution, good governance, decentralization, the rule of law, justice, the environment and poverty.

 

On the 8 March, 1999, WMC launched its own radio station, Women’s Radio FM 102, with the objective of being recognized for its high-quality radio programs and to be respected national and internationally for professionalism and ethical leadership in Cambodia’s media sector. Since 1999, FM 102 has successfully carved out a unique niche in entertainment programming and has become one of the country’s leading apolitical radio stations.
