SUMMARY:2023 Annual Conference: Ukraine Raising its Voice - Journalism and Misinformation at a Time of War
DESCRIPTION:This annual conference is scheduled at a particularly crucial moment as journalists in Ukraine come under increasing threat\, as the media sector reels from a collapse in revenue and loss of talent due to the war – and as Russian misinformation and manipulation is on an alarming upswing. Through insightful talks and networking\, we wish to facilitate fresh interaction between Ukrainian media entities both in N. America and inside Ukraine and with emigre media entities. In addition\, we wish to create stronger connections between Ukrainian journalists and their colleagues in mainstream media. Finally\, we desire to amplify some of the positive aspects of Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression – including how it has risen to a new level on the battle frontline of social media and marketing. \n\nDonation \n\nPROGRAM OF EVENTS \nFRIDAY\, MAY 19\n6:00PM      Registration. \n6:30PM      Opening Remarks\, Special Greetings and Tribute. \n7:15PM      Opening Discussion: Identifying positivity in the current environment.\nNatalia Sedletska\, Ukrainian investigative reporter.
