Deputy Director of France 24’s

Arabic channel

Always right at the heart of the news and pertinent topics,

France 24 in Arabic is offering a new, enhanced schedule: more

live coverage for greater responsiveness, everyday of the week,

especially in the evenings. The offering is notably strengthened

on weekends to be even more in line with the lifestyles in the

Middle East and North Africa (MENA). Experts provide daily key

information to dissect international news, ranging from politics,

economics, social topics, and sports, amongst others.

We are also improving our editorial offering with new events and

programmes, particularly in the spheres of fact-checking and

debunking fake news, with an emphasis on environmental issues.

Alvaro Sierra

Deputy Director of France 24’s

Spanish channel

France 24’s smallest channel (in terms of its age!) that has f ir-

mly established itself over the past few years in Latin America

is preparing to become a little bit bigger and a little bit closer to

its audience. The editorial offering features strong live segments,

along with innovative column broadcasts such as ‘Cómo amane-

ce en...’ (How a city in the Americas wakes up, produced by our

correspondents) and ‘En contexto’ (The event of the day put into

context). In addition, we will innovate in terms of digital formats

and increase our production capacities by assigning a number

of web correspondents to Mexico and Argentina. Like its sister

channels, France 24 in Spanish - based in Bogotá, at the heart of

the Latin American continent - is fully anchored in the continent’s

seasonality and the expectations of its audience. ¡Hasta Pronto!
