Audiovisual Unit - Post E: Promotion

The European Parliament stands for European democracy. We help connect it to people. 

This entails providing complete and impartial information to citizens and media about the European Parliament, and assisting Members in their communication activities.

The Directorate-General for Communication (DG COMM) strives to reach and engage the right audience with the right message at the right time and in doing so, deliver world-class communication. We are committed communication professionals coming from various professional and academic backgrounds.

The European Parliament's Audiovisual Unit provides essential services to raise the awareness of the European Parliament and guarantee the transparency of its political activities. Among many other services, we broadcast and stream the special events, the plenary sessions and the committee meetings and make all the necessary video and photo material available on the Multimedia Centre for journalists and producers.  

The Audiovisual Unit also provides video, audio and photo services to the Members of the European Parliament (MEPs) and offers audiovisual facilities such as TV studios, radio studios or camera crews to broadcast and webcast media undertakings.

The Promotion Team ensures that the work of the Audiovisual Unit is promoted to the core audiences and key stakeholders.

As part of Parliament's commitment to honoring journalists who were killed during the exercise of their work, the Directorate for Media offers its Schuman traineeships in memory of Jan Kuciak, the Slovakian investigative journalist who was murdered in February 2018.
