Agenda
In this exclusive panel, some of the most influential voices in global journalism come together to reflect on the current state of the media - and where it must go next.
We are living in an Age of Doubt. Polarization, misinformation, and media capture are not rare problems, but symptoms of a deeper crisis - one that challenges not only how journalism is practiced, but, more importantly, what it stands for.
Ideas and values that were once clear are now constantly being redefined. What is true and what is not? What genuinely serves the public interest, and why does it matter? And does journalism still uphold its mission of serving the common good and holding those in power accountable?
At a time when content is often mistaken for news, and information overload generates more noise than reflection, clarity is rare—and public engagement has been replaced by the targeting of attention as a marketing metric. Meanwhile, major crises go underreported, breaches of press freedom are increasingly normalized, and trust in journalism continues to decline. Perhaps it is time to ask: should we re-establish the meaning and mission of our profession?
This discussion – including an engaging Q&A – aims to confront journalism’s evolving responsibilities in a fractured world and explores how the profession can restore its integrity, relevance, and trust, not through isolated efforts, but with a unified and resilient voice.
