Three weeks after creating his TikTok account, the environmental candidate Yannick Jadot is preparing a new offensive in the direction of the youngest. According to our information, the environmental candidate will launch next Monday, January 17, his Twitch channel, this live video streaming service popular with video game players but which is widely open to other audiences.

"Where we stand out is that we are going to offer a real schedule of recurring weekly meetings every evening from Monday to Thursday", announces Romain Aubert, manager of the channel.
Objective: "to create moments of authenticity and promote ecological themes".
The programs, each of which will give pride of place to interactivity with Internet users, will be offered at 6.30 p.m. or 7 p.m., will last an average of two hours and will be shot in a dedicated studio located in the heart of Yannick Jadot's Parisian HQ.
The candidate himself will participate, at least every other week, in a discussion and question-and-answer program with Internet users.
On Monday, a political news program called "Le Baron vert" will be co-hosted by Benjamin Lucas, national coordinator of the Generation movement.

"Reaching people under 35"
On Tuesday, the program "Grands Témoins" will be hosted by Sandrine Rousseau, finalist in the environmentalist primary and president of the political council of Jadot. The ecofeminist will receive two guests each week on social and societal issues (inequalities, animal welfare, LGBT fight, etc.). On Wednesday, the program "Generation climate" "made by young people for young people" will offer to address the news "in a relaxed mode". Finally, the deputy-mathematician Cédric Villani, member of the Jadot campaign team, will regularly offer a scientific program called “Green background”.
“The idea with this new Twitch channel is to reach those under 35 but also to mobilize environmental activists,” underlines Romain Aubert.
It was planned for a long time but its launch obviously has a particular resonance with the health crisis which limits physical meetings and large gatherings.
