Community triple play
The Radio 2.0 for Development blog is intended as a space for practitioners and researchers to share experiences and ideas about combining radio and other information and communication technologies. Community triple play is an example of the types of community-driven solutions that are emerging in many parts of the world, and which are designed to extend networks to communities bypassed by traditional telecom networks and provide ICT services that meet the specific needs of poor and rural communities.
For this particular model, these networks in conjunction with a local community radio can offer “community triple play”, locally-owned and managed operations providing radio, internet access, and voice over IP telephony. “Evidence shows that when regulatory and other hurdles are removed, business models emerge that provide sustainable modern communication capabilities to poor and remote communities.”
