Al Jazeera’s Wael al-Dahdouh, who returned to work within days of his family being killed by an Israeli strike, recalls his grief, determination and sense of isolation at covering a war while being personally attacked.

“The United States is facing a press freedom crisis that should concern anyone who cares about democracy. A free press cannot function where it is politically targeted, legally constrained, and exposed to growing physical risks.” 1/4

The same urgency was reflected across many conversations ICFJ+ team members took part in at #IJF26: For journalism to continue reaching audiences, we need to build the right kind of support for all information providers. Read our Perugia takeaways: www.icfj.org/news/no-one-...

Israel’s repeated prevention of emergency aid reaching journalists hit by their strikes is abhorrent. Journalists are civilians protected under international law. This blatant disregard for norms—and the world’s failure to hold them accountable—must end. @jodieginsberg.bsky.social

Twenty years of conversation, discussion and debate. Twenty years of sharing, commitment and love for journalism as a bastion of democracy. Thousands of speakers, thousands of attendees from around the world, a global community: 20 years of the International Journalism Festival.

Important discussion at @journalismfestival.com led by @lubakas.bsky.social - Global Misogyny Coverage Tracker launch. www.journalismfestival.com/programme/20...

Like every year, I was too busy being in the moment to take any pictures at #ijf26 in Perugia. You’ll have to take my word for it, it was glorious.

My last session at #ijf26 today - wonderful people talking about their 'mistakes'. This kind of convo only happens at Perugia. share.google/fG2JLSDjuY2P...

It's so rewarding to come to Perugia and talk about the work of my Incredible JournalismAI team and to interact with amazing other leaders. But it's also a laugh! #ijf26 So heartwarming to see these people doing such hard work, enjoying the debate
