We are wrapping up a year of successful return to conducting our core activities in person after two years of working mainly online.

It will give us the possibility to come from all of Europe, have good discussions, learn from each other and become better journalists and leaders when returning back home. This is what CIRCOM is really about”, said Eivind Undrum Jacobsen, interim President of CIRCOM Regional.  “For us in EITB it will be the honour to host the Annual Conference of CIRCOM Regional on 1 and 2 June next year.
