European Commission seeks to improve its communication via audiovisual media

In a Communication entitled "Communicating Europe through audiovisual media", the Commission has announced actions aimed at bringing more coverage of EU affairs to TV and radio channels and multimedia platforms. It will encourage audiovisual media professionals to create and take part in European audiovisual networks. In particular, it will propose a network of TV stations to complement the network of radio stations already launched on 1st April 2008. The Commission will also increase the amount of raw audiovisual material which it already provides free of charge to audiovisual media professionals and will increase its own production of videos to illustrate or explain EU policies.
