==History==
===Background===
OAX-AM (''[[Radio Nacional del Perú]]'') began its broadcasts in 1925 in the city of [[Lima]]; It was the first radio station in the country. On the other hand, OAD-TV (''[[TV Perú]]'') began broadcasting in 1958 on channel 7 of the VHF band in Lima as the country's second open television station. One of the first pioneering organizations in the production of content, such as the television series ''{{ill|Nuestros Héroes de la Guerra del Pacífico|es}}'', was the "National Institute of Teleeducation" ({{lang-es|Instituto Nacional de Teleducación}}).<ref>{{Cite news |title=Series educativas y patrióticas en el 7 |url=http://www.tvchola70s80s.ihostfull.com/programas/154980608616997979165c602a06b3930.pdf |date=1982-07-06 |pages=C-3 |work=[[El Comercio (Peru)|El Comercio]]}}</ref> This institution, consolidated in the 1960s,<ref name=SIP2021>{{Cite book |title=The Education Systems of the Americas |last=Valdiviezo Arista |first=Luis Martín |publisher=[[Springer International Publishing]] |year=2021 |isbn=978-3-030-41650-8 |pages=893 |url=https://link.springer.com/referencework/10.1007/978-3-319-93443-3 |last2=Alvarado Ramos |first2=Jonathan Eduardo |last3=Salas Matienz |first3=Mayra}}</ref> was important for the production of educational content and prevailed in parallel with the future state media company until its closure in 1995.<ref>{{Cite book |title=Origen y antecedentes de la teleducación en el Perú.

In 1973, during the self-proclaimed [[Revolutionary Government of the Armed Forces of Peru|Revolutionary Government of the Armed Forces]], the '''National Radio Broadcasting Company of Peru''' ({{lang-es|Empresa Nacional de Radiodifusión del Perú}}, '''ENRAD Perú''') was created, an entity that brought together Channel 7 of Lima and ''Radio Nacional'', in addition to managing certain expropriated media such as ''Radio La Crónica AM'' or Channel 9 in Lima.<ref name=SIP2021/> In parallel and until the end of the regime, the commercial shareholders of the ''[[América Televisión|América]]'' and ''[[Panamericana Televisión|Panamericana]]'' television networks founded the company ''Telecentro'', a subsidiary in charge of programming production for both stations, in response to the expropriation of 51% of their shares by the [[Peruvian State|State]]. During this time, at the end of 1976, Channel 7 in Lima began to progressively broadcast [[Color television|in colour]], producing all of its programming in this technology in 1979.

In 1981, months after the second government of [[Fernando Belaúnde Terry]] began, ENRAD Peru was reorganized under the name '''Peruvian Film, Radio and Television Company''' ({{lang-es|Empresa de Cine, Radio y Televisión Peruana}}, '''ENCRTP''') and was temporarily assigned to the '''National System of Social Communication''' ({{lang-es|Sistema Nacional de Comunicación Social}}, '''SINACOSO''').<ref>{{Cite journal |title=Museos puertas abiertas en Perú |journal=Revista Museos |url=https://www.registromuseoschile.cl/663/articles-98698_archivo_01.pdf |last=Repetto Málaga |first=Luis |issue=30 |pages=65 |year=2011}}</ref> Furthermore, in that same year, Channel 7 of Lima changed its name to '''Radio Televisión Peruana''' (RTP) and began satellite transmissions. This last event allowed it to increase and consolidate its coverage at the national level since, until then, its repeater stations in the rest of the country retransmitted the programming of the main station in Lima via microwave.

In the field of radio, the FM frequency reached 53% of the national territory, while its AM frequency reached 14.6% and Radio La Crónica 29%.

On August 3, 2016, the writer and journalist Hugo Coya was appointed as president of the board due to the resignation of María Luisa Málaga. At that time the institute managed to raise 12% of its advertising budget. However, Coya resigned from the presidency of the board due to the pardon granted by the then President of the Republic Pedro Pablo Kuczynski to Alberto Fujimori. Then, the Ministry of Culture appointed journalist Eduardo Guzmán Iturbe to serve as president of the board of directors of this conglomerate.

In 2019, the IRTP decided to renew all its television media and proposed new plans and alternatives. That year, the Lima 2019 Pan American and Parapan American Games were broadcast to provide an alternative to support athletes and for athletes in the country. In addition, he proposed to produce his own fiction programs to export to other networks and thus reduce his dependence on the State.

Subsequently, management chose to renew its information system, add new programs and include new services. Nacional TV (later renamed TV Perú 7.2) was launched and in March 2020, both Nacional TV and TV Perú Noticias began rebroadcasting TV Perú programming due to the government's COVID-19 emergency decree. In April 2020, the Ministry of Education decreed the launch of "I learn at home", a virtual education television channel aimed at students throughout Peru, which is planned to become an independent channel when the satellite hub service is completed in 2024.
