Culture, Commitment, Community: the Australian Community Radio Sector is a report on the state and role of the community broadcasting sector by Susan Forde, Michael Meadows and Kerrie Foxwell from Griffith University's Australian Key Centre for Cultural and Media Policy.

The report, published at the end of 2002, was the culmination of three years of research funded and supported by the Australian Research Council, the CBAA, CBF and the Department of Communications, Information Technology and the Arts.

Based on over 350 interviews with sector workers and a series of focus group discussions the study presents a detailed overview of the sector at the turn of the millennium.
