Democracy in Darkness

Sat 7 June 2025

Main Hall

Esteemed journalists Virginia Trioli, Peter Greste, and Kumi Taguchi come together for a timely exploration into the increasingly challenging world of modern journalism. Their conversation will shed light on the significant erosion of press freedoms globally, the pervasive and damaging rise of misinformation, and the ever-shifting expectations and demands of contemporary audiences. This vital discussion will delve into the complex ethical dilemmas faced by journalists today; the insidious threat of censorship in its various forms; and the enduring, yet often difficult, quest for truth in an increasingly fractured and polarised world. Be part of this important session on the future of news and its critical role in a functioning democracy.
