About this series

Focus on Europe is the new name of the program and stations that have come to rely on European Journal for a balance and insight from across the Atlantic won’t be disappointed.

With Focus on Europe, DW has developed a new program that adds a more personal touch to the issues affecting people across the continent. The series provides audiences an inside perspective on the diversity of people, places, conflicts and coexistence that define Europe.

Focus on Europe presents genuine stories about the lives of real people – from the Polish blacksmith to the Finnish air traffic controller, from a British businessman to a Turkish women’s activist. Reporters file their stories from all over the continent and special editions are devoted to a particular country or event.

Focus on Europe will continue to attract audiences with up close, visually powerful, exciting and balanced profiles and reporting. Like its predecessor, this new series is a must see for everyone who wants to be an expert on Europe.
