Diaspora Radio tries to fill the gaps found in the representation of African Diasporas. It produces narratives of migration and transnational experiences of Africans in Europe and elsewhere in the world. BTU's PhD student Lydia Ouma Radoli started Diaspora Radio as an online media platform in March 2018.

In order to provide transnational perspectives, Lydia Ouma Radoli has teamed up with her Kenyan colleague, Media Manager and Producer Ray Mutai, who creates content on the Kenyan and African perspective. Lydia Ouma Radoli is a professional broadcast journalist who recently successfully defended her doctoral dissertation at the BTU faculty for economy, law and social sciences in the area of culture and technology. Her thesis title is "Narratives of Migration and Development as Discourses in Transnational Digital Migrant Media": The Case of Kenyan Migration to Europe.
