About EuroparlTV

EuroparlTV is the European Parliament’s web video 
service. Available both in web and broadcast quality, 
its mission is to inform about the European Parlia-
ment activities.

EuroparlTV  oﬀers  a  wide  array  of  programmes 
explaining how Members of Parliament shape politi-
cal developments and pass laws that aﬀect people’s 
everyday lives across Europe.

The service includes live streaming of parliamentary 
sessions, committee meetings and news and debate 
programmes, as well as educational videos.

Fully  integrated  with  social  media,  EuroparlTV  is 
available in various formats via an online database.

Uniquely, almost every video on EuroparlTV is avail-
able in 23 oﬃcial languages of the European Union.

Products

EuroparlTV videos belong to two diﬀerent categories, 
focusing on diﬀerent aspects

News

The videos belonging to this category oﬀer comprehen-
sive coverage of European Parliament business. Current 
aﬀairs  and  hot  issues  are  presented  in  an  easy-to-un-
derstand, jargon-free, fast-paced way.

The news videos are divided into three types of product:

–  Briefs,  covering  the  main  aspects  of  an  ongoing 
issue  in  90  seconds  and  giving  the  ﬂoor  to  key 
actors;

– 

Interviews  and  interactive  interviews,  allowing  for 
in-depth  exchanges  of  views  with  key  members  of 
the  European  Parliament. 
include 
high-proﬁle  visitors  such  as  Heads  of  State  or 
Government or Prime Ministers;

Interviewees 

–  Reporters,  exploring  European  realities  through 
national angles with investigations on the ground 
and encounters with local, national actors.

How it works 

This  series  of  videos  focuses  on  key  aspects  of  EU 
daily  life,  integration  and  policies:  the  euro,  EU 
enlargement, EU institutions, climate change, migra-
tion, data protection, etc.

In  order  to  make  these  issues  understandable  and 
appealing  to  the  general  public  and  a  younger 
audience, they o(cid:27)en take the form of short, dynamic, 
animated infographics.

These  videos  are  perfect  to  be  used  as  teaching 
material  in  order  to  educate  young  people  or 
neophytes  to  the  European  Union  and  European 
aﬀairs.
