EU Parliament engages online audience with online video system

MEDIAFREEDOM, the media asset management platform developed by Twofour, is helping the European Parliament communicate to citizens, ahead of the European Elections on June 4th.Onlinevideos, on the multilingual EuroparlTV, are reminding citizens that “It’s your choice” – future news headlines may well be defined by how people vote in the European Elections; covering issues from GM food and products made using child labour to the future of nuclear power in Europe.

EuroparlTV will also broadcast live coverage of the European elections, as the results come in, from the premises of the European Parliament in Brussels on the evening of Sunday 7 June. It will be the only place in the world where you will be able to watch election coverage from a European, rather than a national perspective.

EuroparlTV (/www.europarltv.europa.eu) is Europe’s largest online video deployment of live and on-demand streaming. The destination serves as an information tool and media library, delivering content via its four channels – yourParliament, yourVoice, youngEurope and ParliamentLive. As well as the four channels, a special section called “Discovering the European Parliament” gives you a chance to find out background information on how Parliament works and what it is doing.
