BBC World Service is bringing radio services in 19 languages to Belgrade for the 25th Universiade, thanks to a short-term radio broadcast partnership agreement.
The arrangement between BBC World Service and the bi-annual international sporting competition for university students means listeners in Belgrade can access the BBC’s multi-lingual programming during the games, 24 hours a day, by tuning in to BBC 90.2 FM.
BBC World Service radio programmes will keep international audiences up to date with top news stories from the BBC’s leading correspondents, as well as sport headlines and other topics, from art and lifestyle to business and science.
Sarah Jones, Head of European Business Development, BBC World Service, says: “I am thrilled that, through our partnership with Universiade 2009, listeners in Belgrade will now be able to access 19 BBC World Service language services throughout this truly international event.”
