2025 iMEdD International Journalism Forum wraps up

With over 1,000 participants, 119 speakers from 34 countries, and 47 panels, workshops, and keynotes, the 2025 iMEdD International Journalism Forum was a focal point for global dialogue on the future of journalism from September 25 to 27. Journalists, media professionals, academics, and students discussed the role of artificial intelligence in journalism and the ethical dilemmas it raises; the importance of cross-border collaboration in reporting on topics such as organized crime, health, and technology; the need for journalists to embrace new technologies and tools to address critical issues like the climate crisis; and ways to empower journalists to fight professional burnout. Furthermore, journalists and experts who have worked in conflict zones like Gaza shared testimonies, highlighting the selflessness and bravery of colleagues who are persecuted and targeted because of their profession.
