In 2013 a new initiative group of professional journalists recreated Hromadske Radio with the same name and the same goals. Hromadske Radio was started as a podcast-project and transformed into a web-radio. In July 2015 Hromadske Radio won the competition of the National Council on Television and Radio Broadcasting of Ukraine, giving the station an ability to broadcast in some cities in Donetsk and Luhansk regions and in Kyiv.^[3]

New Hromadske Radio

The new online project of Hromadske Radio was announced in July 2013. On August 21 of 2013 some members of the initiative group launched the first podcast, where they explained why they decided to re-organize Hromadske Radio. The first broadcast was on December 1, 2013 at the waves of Europa Plus Ukraine. In this program journalists Julia Burkovska, Denis Kubryak and Andriy Kulykov led the marathon "Euromaidan on-line".

In 2013 Olexander Buzyuk was a Chairman of Hromadske Radio. On 14 September 2015 he was replaced by Andriy Kulykov.

The project currently uses the logo of the first Hromadske Radio with the permission of the International Fund ‘Renaissance’, which is the main donor of the project. Hromadske Radio also uses a part of the equipment, which remained after the first project of Hromadske Radio.

Broadcasting

On 1 December 2013 року Hromadske Radio started broadcasting on the waves of Europa Plus Україна. The first air was launched to the Euromaidan events in Kyiv.

Since February 2014 Hromadske Radio broadcasts daily two-hour talk shows "Hromadska Hvylia" ("Civic wave"). Originally, the program was broadcast on the waves of the First Ukrainian radio channel.

At the end of 2014 Hromadske Radio started producing news (called The Chronicles of Donbass). These news are broadcast for residents of the eastern regions of Ukraine on the waves of partner's radio stations and later on the own frequencies of Hromadske Radio.

After winning in July 2015 at the competition of the National Council on Television and Radio Broadcasting of Ukraine, Hromadske Radio has been able to broadcast in some cities in the Donetsk and Lugansk regions and in Kyiv.

On 1 November, Hromadske Radio presented two new daily talk shows called Kiev-Donbass. Programs are created for residents of Donetsk and Luhansk regions and IDPs. The editors of these programs became experienced journalists Mykhaylo Kukin and Tetyana Troschynska. Two-hour talk shows in Russian are aimed to cover the most relevant events in Donetsk and Luhansk, and are addressed to everyone who wants to know more about the situation in the east of Ukraine. Hromadske Radio broadcasts 24 hours per day, five hours of which are broadcast in Russian.^[5]

Besides, Hromadske Radio raises money via crowdfunding platforms. During the last crowdfunding campaigns, Hromadske Radio raised over UAH 100,000 with the platform Big Idea. These money helped Hromadske Radio to create 36 podcasts about art, culture and self-development. At the beginning of 2014, Hromadske Radio raised over $17,000 on Indiegogo.
