Does ‘Eurovision’ ring a bell? The European Broadcasting Union (EBU) is, among many other things, the organiser of the famous song contest. This non-profit organisation is working for over a 100 public media services based in 56 countries. Together, they provide audiovisual content to 1 billion people, in 153 languages.
In this new episode of Radio Lingvistika, our 3 guests from EBU explain how they work, why EBU was created and how they deal with languages. They also present their new project, ‘A European perspective’, which aims at breaking national barriers by sharing on-line news from all over the continent, delivered to citizens in their language, with the help of artificial intelligence.
