Presentation
* The Olympic Games have very high international viewing figures, not only on television but on digital platforms as well. However, this must-see sporting event receives little coverage in the African media, due in particular to the high cost of broadcasting rights and difficulties in obtaining journalist accreditation.
* The Paralympic Games, meanwhile, are a unique opportunity to showcase diversity and promote the inclusion of people with disabilities. But Paralympic sport is severely underrepresented in Arab media.
The Paris Médias 2024 project provides training for sports journalists from Africa and the Arab world on the coverage of high-level sporting events. Through the creation of two pop-up editorial offices in Paris, it supports the production of innovative content on the events of the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
Project beneficiaries
- 45 sports journalists from 15 countries in sub-Saharan Africa
- 10 sports journalists from 3 countries in North Africa and the Middle East
