DW will provide an hour-long program (55 minutes running time) fueled by the week’s international news – like the building of democratic movements in the aftermath of the Arab Spring or the economic crises that has shaken the foundations of Europe. The program is produced by DW’s editorial team in Bonn.

“WorldLink is a news magazine with timeliness and urgency that foregoes breaking news coverage and analysis to focus on the impact – often selecting one or two major events and going to the source of the story to find the peo-ple whose lives have been changed by events,” says Sylvia Viljoen, DW’s Head of Distribution America.

WorldLink will be available every Saturday with a rights window of seven days. The program is available via PRSS and from DW’s own AudioDepot file server. WorldLink joins DW’s other weekly news magazine, Inside Europe, which has been on public radio in the U.S. for more than 25 years.
