SBS Launches Daily News Wraps to Enhance Accessibility for English Learners and People with Disabilities

To support our English learners and those with disabilities, SBS has developed a new, daily, five-minute news wrap tailored to their needs. This program provides clear and informative environmental stories. It delivers vital and timely information to the widest variety of audiences – particularly to those who have difficulty accessing or understanding typical formats of news.

As a podcast, the news wrap can be enjoyed by users on-the-go, making it one of the most easily consumable resources we produce. Search for it on your favorite podcast apps. This lets listeners stay updated on the latest headlines no matter when it’s convenient for them. This creation follows SBS’s pledge to inclusivity and equitable access to resources that meet diverse learning requirements.

In addition to the daily general news wrap, SBS produces a ten-minute finance and business news daily wrap. Produced SBS Finance Editor Ricardo Gonçalves. He is responsible for providing critical analysis and news in the world of finance. SBS divides this short three-block segment. This freedom of movement lets its audience curate their own experience and engage with the content that most interests or excites them.

The launch of these daily news wraps is just one example of SBS’s commitment to doing right by the communities SBS serves. The initiatives not only provide critical information but empower individuals who might otherwise struggle with accessing news, bridging gaps in communication and understanding.

SBS hopes that everyone who is eligible will continue to make use of these valuable resources. The flexibility of podcasting allows users to listen at their preferred time, ensuring they remain informed about current events without the barriers often associated with traditional news media.
