(Virtual Press Office) Covering European affairs has never been more important than in the past two years: back-to-back summits, rescue packages, a continent-wide project in danger. Yet sending someone to Brussels and Strasbourg can prove costly and time consuming.
The European Parliament offers solutions to broadcasters looking to cover EU Affairs. Our team will be present from Monday 8/10 to Wednesday 10/10 at the G3.05 stand to help you out.
EuroparlTV
Every week, EuroparlTV (www.europarltv.eu) publishes a vast selection of fresh content with a view to the daily EU agenda, on top of 450 hours of archive available, thanks to its committed crew of professional journalists.
Our aim is to provide top news and documentaries on EU affairs for our current or prospective partners: more than 100 of them are using our programmes on a regular basis.
We produce:
- news and interviews on hot political topics;
- short documentaries and videos which explain how the European Union works;
- debates and magazines with high profile guests on current affairs;
- a series of programs for younger audiences ready to use by educational partners.
Our partners (mostly TV stations and news websites) have access to our material, free of charge, in broadcast quality, through an online FTP platform.
Our entire production comes with subtitles in 22 languages. 22-language voiceover is available for the top 20 programmes of our "young" series.
Become a partner, get access to our programmes as they are published on our website and broadcast them to your liking!
