Cultural events

From the Cannes Film Festival to the Football World Cup, CFI assists journalists from southern hemisphere countries in covering the largest and most important cultural and sporting events. Until now, for reasons of cost and organisation, few professionals from the southern hemisphere would travel to cover all of these events. However, the general public increasingly wants to share in these important members and to see familiar faces when watching coverage.
