The portraits of journalists killed in the Gaza Strip, created after the tragic events of October 7, 2023, were exhibited from December 6 to 8, 2024, in Amman, Jordan, during the 17th edition of the ARIJ Forum.
The forum’s theme, “Journalism Unbound,” highlights the critical challenges faced by investigative journalism in a time of escalating technological manipulation, artificial intelligence restricting digital discourse, and a deepening crisis of safety for journalists and civilians in conflict zones, especially after the war in Gaza. These issues are compounded by global constraints such as climate change and pressing social struggles.
In this context, “Journalism Unbound” calls for a renewed commitment to accountability, justice, and democracy, emphasizing the resilience of investigative journalism in overcoming obstacles to truth.
