    The European Commission has launched EUTube, a dedicated channel on YouTube, to make more widely accessible its audiovisual material explaining its policies and actions on issues which concern citizens across the EU – such as climate change, energy or immigration. The non-exclusive arrangement between the European Commission and YouTube aims to present new and innovative ways of informing people on the activities of the European Union through video clips that illustrate the main issues facing citizens from across the 27 member states. Currently, users can watch approximately 50 video clips on a wide-range of topics - from the EU’s first post-war historical steps to today’s need to safeguard the environment and combat climate change. Initially much of the material was in English, but French and German language versions are being added.
