The Dynamic Coalition on the Sustainability of Journalism and News Media (DC-Sustainability), in collaboration with the UCLA Institute for Technology, Law & Policy and the Global Forum for Media Development, is organizing a Community Lab session at RightsCon 2022. The session titled “Frenemies: Reinventing the Big Tech versus Journalism dynamic” will examine several initiatives that are attempting to build trust in reliable news sources as a means to improve credibility and sustainability of news media. The session will look at the relevance, functions, and lessons from these efforts and their utility for non-English and Global South media. The session will also explore if and how journalism trust projects can or should work with Big Tech platforms and their news-related products and systems.
Date: Thursday, 9 June 2022 Time: 10:45 - 11:45 AM U.S. Eastern Time
Note: The session will only be accessible for participants already registered on the RightsCon platform.
