The European Central Bank (ECB) is seeking a continuous dialogue with representatives of the media. Part of this effort is a series of seminars offered to journalists who are covering issues related to the ECB/Eurosystem/ESCB’s activities.
The seminars are usually held twice a year at the premises of the ECB. They allow journalists to follow the ECB’s monthly press conference and attend a series of presentations by experts on key central banking topics.
