1. The epresentation of French society in the audiovisual media
Arcom reports annually to Parliament on the actions of television and radio service editors in terms of the epresentation of French society and the fight agains discrimination, as well as on the actions it has taken.
The Authority draws up a "barometer of the representation of French society", a measurement tool that provides a snapshot at a given moment of the representation of this diversity on screens. The results of the barometer also enable broadcasters, on a regular basis, to have a precise idea of the image they project of society, and thus to better feed their airwaves with diverse people and programs representative of social diversity, without doing so on an event-driven basis.
2. Study of the economic fabric of the audiovisual production sector
The economic fabric study is an Arcom report designed to take stock of the audiovisual production sector as a whole, and assess its economic health.
As in previous years, this study provides an in-depth look at a particular theme, which is the subject of a second part. This year, Arcom focused on the phenomenon of concentration within the audiovisual production sector, its limits and potential effects.

Arcom and its partners present the results of last year's equipment observatory, which includes data for the second half 2021 for television and 2021 for radio.
5. Online photography: massive use and a changing sector
As part of its legal mission to monitor online usage and evaluate measures to protect works on content-sharing platforms, Arcom has carried out a two-part study of the photography sector: one economic section to evaluate the market and its segments, and the other to investigate Internet users' use of online photographs and their knowledge of royalties.
