What does ARTE mean in Educational?

Arte

Arte is a Franco-German TV network, a European channel, that promotes programming in the areas of culture and the arts. Its facilities are in Issy-les-Moulineaux, south of Paris, and it is jointly headquartered in Strasbourg, France, and Baden-Baden, Germany. As an international joint venture, its programs cater technically to audiences from both France and Germany. This implies double-titling, opposite-language subtitling, dubbing, hosts who speak both languages alternately, and two separate audio tracks. Political and administrative control at ARTE is very much in French hands but it is the Germans who produce the majority percentage of the channel's European programme content. Programs are created by Arte France formerly known as La Sept and by ARTE Deutschland GmbH, a subsidiary of the two main public German TV networks ARD and ZDF.
