The Summit, to be held on September 27 and 28 in a virtual format, is open to the public, and registration is free through this link. The organizers recommend the participation of academics and university students.
"One of the great challenges of modern journalism is to know the most effective strategies to reach audiences with reliable information and, also, how to turn the media into effective tools to offer verified content," said the president of the IAPA, Michael Greenspon, Global Head of Licensing and Print Innovation for The New York Times.
The coordinator of the Mistrust Project, Adrián Pino, assured that this new edition occurs "at a crucial moment in the fight against disinformation and will allow us to share experiences and understand what is working and what is not."
The five thematic axes of the Summit are electoral disinformation; building effective verified content distribution strategies; building news quality indicators; verification in the age of Generative Artificial Intelligence, and media literacy in the age of Tik-Tok.
