About Euromed-news

EuroMed-News: one philosophy, one project, one team.

One philosophy.« Informing people in the southern Mediterranean countries about the initiatives supported by the European Union to generate prosperity in its neighbouring regions, all underpinned by the existing cultural dialogue between the two shores.» This is the mission of the EuroMed-News consortium.

One project. Bringing together international organisations ASBU, COPEAM and EBU, and public broadcasters EPTV in Algeria, France Télévisions, JRTV in Jordan, LJB in Libya, ORTAS in Syria, SNRT in Morocco and TéléLiban in Lebanon, the EuroMed-News Consortium aims to:
- inform the general public about the Euro-Mediterranean partnership;
- facilitate the coverage and broadcasting of current Euro-Mediterranean affairs by the southern broadcasters in accordance with their editorial freedom;
- stimulate dialogue and mutual awareness between people living on both sides of the Mediterranean;
- publicise the goals, methods and results of the European Neighbourhood Policy;
- promote cultural diversity and gender equality;
- organise training for journalists.

One team. The EuroMed-News project is led by France Télévisions in partnership with the European Union, with COPEAM in charge of overall coordination. All editorial aspects are overseen by the ASBU and EBU, while Euro-Mediterranean news exchanges through ERN-Med are being coordinated by EPTV Algeria together with the Editor-in-Chief based in the ASBU and EBU. EuroMed-News features, current affairs programmes and documentaries will be produced by EPTV, JRTV, LJB, ORTAS, SNRT and TéléLiban.
