Calling young Europeans!

We want your stories for a podcast series

The Europeans Podcast and Are We Europe Audio are looking for new contributors to our podcast series “This Is What A Generation Sounds Like”, supported by Allianz Kulturstiftung.

Do you have a story you'd like to share with us?

We are looking for young Europeans (aged 18-34) to tell intimate stories from their village / town / city / region which will be presented as beautiful visual animations as well as audio-only podcasts. We’re especially interested in stories that touch on pressing social and political issues. You do not need to be an audio professional or journalist to take part.

Storytellers will be paid €800 to work with our producers on bringing their personal stories to life in one of the series’ episodes. We are open to submissions from duos or teams (the fee would be shared between members).

For this round of pitches, we are particularly keen to hear from people on the frontlines of the climate crisis, and those struggling with a precarious work or housing situation. You do not need to speak perfect English.

Interested? Tell us about your story in a 1-minute voice recording (you can do this on your phone). Send the recording in an email to hello@europeanspodcast.com, with PITCH - GENERATION in the subject line.

DEADLINE: 22 August 2022

We can’t wait to hear your stories!

With love, The Europeans and Are We Europe
