Shared Values, Mutual Benefit
CIOL's motto is 'universal understanding' and Euronews' motto is 'All Views' – because all views matter.
Euronews seeks to foster trust through fact-based journalism, with their mission to provide unfiltered, unbiased journalism that empowers rather than unsettles. So, working together makes perfect sense. One practical way of advancing universal understanding is through high-quality, multilingual fact-based news content that connects people across cultures and languages.
Given these complementary goals, the two organisations have agreed to a formal Digital Content Partnership to work together to advance these important themes for languages and linguists.
Euronews' exceptional breadth of multilingual coverage, commitment to balanced journalism, and unparalleled reach across Europe and beyond makes it an exciting and complementary partner for the Chartered Institute of Linguists, and our mission to raise interest in and appreciation of language learning and professional language use.
Why Euronews is perfect for Linguists
Euronews has 13 core language editions, covering European and world news in Arabic, English, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Italian, Persian, Portuguese, Polish, Russian, Spanish, Turkish and more. This means Euronews provides linguists with authentic, current materials to maintain and develop their language skills.
Whether you're a translator keeping your languages sharp, an interpreter staying current with terminology across domains, or a language teacher seeking contemporary resources, Euronews offers:
- Authentic multilingual content across the same stories in different languages
- Professional-level vocabulary covering politics, business, technology, climate, culture and more
- Current affairs coverage that keeps you informed and linguistically up-to-date
- Diverse text types from news reports to feature articles and analysis pieces
- Audio and video content for listening comprehension and accent familiarisation
A partnership for Membership, professional and personal development
This collaboration represents CIOL's ongoing commitment to providing members with easy access to high quality resources for their professional development.
Just as our partnership with Duolingo supports new language learning from beginner to intermediate levels, our partnership with Euronews can support professional linguists in maintaining their high standards of existing language competence, by staying connected to language evolution across countries, cultures and languages.
Euronews has multilingual newsrooms and a multicultural and multilingual team of journalists and correspondents based across Europe and beyond. These journalists contribute regionally relevant insights, and help ensure cultural accuracy in reporting in different languages and cultures.
An Invaluable Study and Language Learning Tool
Engaging with authentic news content can be a valuable study tool for language learners at all levels. Exposure to current affairs articles, reports, features and broadcasts helps students and learners of all ages and stages to encounter the kind of diverse, real-world language they'll need for both academic assessments and professional contexts.
The variety of topics, registers and text types found in Euronews’ quality news sources mirrors the linguistic diversity that language students can expect to meet in authentic situations. Regular engagement with such materials supports exam preparation while also building the broader language skills needed for career success and professional communication.
