Audrey Cerdan is the Climate Editor of public service broadcaster France Télévisions.
Previously, she worked as a reporter for Rue89 and Le Nouvel Obs. In 2020, she joined public service news website Franceinfo as an editor-in-chief. In 2022, she worked with the French non-profit Expertises Climat, a network of climate scientists for stronger media coverage of the climate crisis.
Early in 2023, Cerdan joined France Télévisions to design and launch the new daily “Journal Météo-Climat”: an evolution of traditional weather forecast towards a program that puts the everyday weather coverage in the context of a changing climate — a transformation that was welcomed by the audience. She has since been appointed Climate and Environment Editor for the public service broadcaster’s news branch, with a broader role across the newsroom. In 2024, she was named Journalist of the Year by the American organization Covering Climate Now.
