I'm writing to you from Perugia, Italy, where the biggest annual media event in Europe has just kicked off.
ICFJ staffers and dozens of ICFJ network members are here for the International Journalism Festival, to learn, connect and collaborate with other journalists and those who support them from across the world.
ICFJ will be involved in sessions on AI, democracy, disinformation, elections and online violence, featuring our own Dr. Julie Posetti, deputy vice president of global research, and Maggie Farley, senior director of innovation. You can watch these (and other sessions) live online or find the recordings here:
Safety of Journalists Toolbox and Guidelines for monitoring online violence against female journalists - April 18
For those of you who will be in Perugia in person, there are additional opportunities to connect with ICFJ:
I also hope you'll reach out to me and others on the ICFJ team while we are here. Gatherings like this are powerful opportunities for sparking much-needed innovation and collective action, at a time when journalism and our world at large need it.
