Europe Talks Back is a narrative podcast, an exercise of informative storytelling. Each episode covers a different topic focusing on one individual story, which is introduced by the hand of one single interviewee. 

Therefore, there are three main elements that your pitch should include: what, who, and where. Send your topic highlighting what you want to cover on the ground, the person you want to interview (in English) and where will you record the interview. Here, producing a high-quality interview is as important as recording sounds on the ground so send as many details as possible. 

All topics are welcome, but we will choose four stories that fit into the following themes: 

•  Youth, Mental Health and social media
•  Historical Reckonings
•  Climate emergency
•  Communities

But please, take them as an inspiration. We will select four extra topics from your ideas!

Deadline for pitches is 16 August 2023.
