Ngaarda Radio is a vital community radio station based in Roebourne, Western Australia. It serves as the only licensed Aboriginal media outlet across the vast Pilbara region, acting as a crucial platform for language preservation, local news, and community connection. Ngaarda Media is more than just a radio station; it is a multimedia hub that provides a voice for the over 30 Traditional Owner language groups of the Pilbara. The name "Ngaarda" itself is the Yindjibarndi word for 'everybody', reflecting its mission to be an inclusive platform for all Aboriginal people in the region. It is the only First Nations media outlet in Western Australia with a dedicated daily five-minute news bulletin focused on Indigenous breaking news. The station offers a diverse range of content, including language and cultural programs, sports, and entertainment. Beyond standard broadcasting, Ngaarda Media plays a profound role in social connection and rehabilitation, particularly through its work with the local prison.
