In Brazil, the Vargas period was the historical context in which the popularization of radio took place. Due to its diffuser character, it became a privileged vehicle for communication between the State and civil society; and it would not be an exaggeration to assert its role in the formation of the Brazilian national identity.
Over time, radio began to share space with other communication technologies and in homes it continued to lose its centrality as an object or mobile. However, radio – as a function – remains fundamental for communication today.

About the MCB Educational
The Educational MCB proposes practices that articulate the look, doing and thinking so that visitors can assume the role of researchers, researching the contents that the museum offers in a contemporary perspective. The idea is to create challenges for participants in educational activities to raise questions from their own experiences and discover new meanings by relating the visit to the MCB with their lives.
