ABOUT LE CERCLE DES MEDIAS
Le Cercle des Médias is a renowned organization that promotes supportive journalism by financing scholarships for journalism students. They accomplish their goal via their partnership with the La Chance aux Concours association and by distributing prizes to journalists who are interested in initiatives, or who relate stories about diversity, integration and immigration – in partnership with The French-American Foundation – United States.
In this light, Le Cercle des Medias regularly invites well-known individuals from around the world to debate and exchange ideas freely. Notable French and international journalists have had the opportunity to meet Shimon Perez, former president of Israel and recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize, and Béji Caïd Essebsi, President of Tunisia and emblematic political leader of the Arab world.
In keeping with the mission of founders Antoine Guélaud (Former Managing Editor and Director of Special Operations for TF1) and Christophe Kulikowski (Editor-in-chief of politics for Laurent Ruquier “On n’est pas couché” on France 2), Le Cercle des Médias works to create a space for innovative, franc and straightforward dialogue through unique exchanges.
