Programming is at the center of each SRG member's work. SRG is increasingly focusing its activities on ways in which public radio can increase the effectiveness of its programming services and stations' signifcance in their communities. Grow the Audience is SRG's most ambitious effort to to set out a roadmap for program innovation and news services that will significantly increase the reach, use, and diversity of public radio's audience. Local content creation is central to many stations' mission and a path to distinctive identity and significance in a competitive and crowded media landscape. SRG is exploring the costs and benefits of this work, case sutdies of especially successful work, and benchmarking local programming performance. Charting the Territory explores content and service strategies that are taking today's public radio stations to the public service media companies of the future. Read about the assumptions, design, and findings of the initiative. Read Envision a Larger Success
