The mission of CEM is to employ all forms of media – including radio, video, and Internet – to produce unique programs addressing issues that affect our world.

The Center for Emerging Media (CEM) is a nonprofit Baltimore-based media production company dedicated to airing balanced, in-depth discussions on important issues affecting our community, country and world.  CEM’s vision is to create programming and productions utilizing the connectivity of all types of media to stimulate our cultural, social and political lives.

CEM is dedicated to introducing and giving airtime to voices that would otherwise go unheard, particularly the voices and stories of the disenfranchised and dispossessed. In addition to the usual scholars and intellectuals, listeners will hear the individuals directly affected by the issues presented. From students to sex workers to Vietnam veterans, individuals who have not often been given the opportunity to speak will be granted a platform.

CEM’s strategy is to use public radio as its base and primary medium but to integrate that work with video and social media components, in particular to harness the interactive power of the Internet.

The Center for Emerging Media (CEM) was founded in 2000 as a 501(c)(3) private non-profit corporation.
