We are 
Our platform provides journalists with data and information on EU topics which concern people worldwide. As website operator the Datenfreunde GmbH (OpenDataCity) based in Berlin contributes public survey results and social media monitoring related to the EU subjects covered. Interested media are invited to use these tools on their own websites.

For this project the news agencies AFP, ANSA and dpa work together on the European Data News Hub (EDNH) with the aim of developing new ways of displaying and providing data-based news packages consisting of images, videos, radio clips, interactive graphics, information graphics and texts in five languages.

We aim to keep media and subscribers informed on EU topics but we also seek to stimulate discussion on the issues which are changing our world. These include environmental protection, migration and employment matters. The project receives funding from the European Commission but its editorial content is impartial. AFP, ANSA and DPA disseminate content via their networks and through numerous newspapers, television and radio stations worldwide.
