#CONFLICTZONE

From Yemen to Ukraine, from Mexico to Taiwan: the series #ConflictZone examines conflicts around the globe – big and small – and helps make them understandable for a broad audience.

From Afghanistan to Yemen, from Ukraine to Taiwan: whenever tensions rise, there’s always someone filming events on a mobile phone. Thanks to social media, we witness conflicts as they unfold. On TV, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, X, we are bombarded with endless streams of information. Conflicts around the world are extensively documented, analysed by specialists and dissected by academics. Yet, much of this knowledge remains niche, complex, and often overshadowed by fake news. Who helps us step back, make sense of it all and see the bigger picture? The series #ConflictZone examines conflicts – big and small – around the globe. It organises information, verifies facts and makes insights accessible to a broad audience in an engaging way, while maintaining depth. By creating context, it helps viewers understand global implications. What is the background story, who are the key players and what is at stake? Beyond the complex global contexts, the series connects these issues back to our own reality. To what extent is the EU involved, and how is it positioning itself? What potential solutions exist?
