How do you say 'platform' in Japanese?


I'm doing a speech & want to say "I don't often get given a platform like
this"

I've been trying to find the word 'platform', but they only thing that comes
up is the term 'platform' in terms of a train station. (i.e. the noun)

Is there a Japanese equivalent to the 'platform' we use in the metaphorical
sense in English?

Thanks!




「舞台{ぶたい}」 would be a fairly good word choice if you are referring to the
opportunity to give a speech someplace.
