Summary

The US onAir Network will be working with volunteers from New Mexico universities, colleges, and nonprofit organizations to oversee the curation and moderation of posts, aircasts (online discussions), and in person events for the New Mexico onAir Hub …  related to federal, state, and local elections and government.

Our first outreach will be to University of New Mexico partly because of its proximity to the state capital. We have identified many of University of New Mexico’s civic engagement, academic, internship and research programs related to making democracy and civic responsibility a focus of higher learning on their campus … for students, faculty, staff, and local community. This post, over time, will have similar information on other collaborating organizations in the state.

Contact ben.murphy@onair.cc for more information on how to involve your organization.

About

The University of New Mexico’s onAir chapter will initially focus on training interested undergrad and graduate students on how to curate New Mexico onAir content especially submitting Top News articles, events, videos, and information and moderating forums in each post they curate.

Student curators will also work with state senate and house committee chairs to produce aircasts on issues being discussed and bills being proposed in their committees.

During election season, students with other other organizations like the League of Women Voters, will coordinate and produce aircasted debates with candidates.
