From June 17–18, 2024, media professionals from 120+ countries, along with leaders from politics, culture, education, business, and science, have gathered in Bonn for the Global Media Forum. This year’s theme is “Sharing Solutions.” Together, we’re exploring strategies to secure the future of journalism and tackle global crises.

Today, Democracy is under siege, conflicts rage, and climate change impacts are undeniable. Journalism is facing immense challenges, from AI advancements to declining public trust. The world is at a critical juncture. Journalists also face serious threats to their physical and digital safety. Together, we can find solutions to these challenges!

Our founder Joan Chirwa will be speaking at the DW Global Media Forum on a panel that will discuss the safety of journalists.
