Registration is now open for the fifth edition of the Global Disinformation Summit, an international and free online event organised by the Inter American Press Association (IAPA), Proyecto Desconfío (Argentina), and Fundación para el Periodismo (Bolivia), with the support of Agência Lupa (Brazil) and Fundación Gabo as Main Partners, and sponsored by Google News Initiative.
The event, which will take place on September 17 and 18, 2025, will bring together journalists, researchers, technologists, educators and organisations from around the world in a trilingual, regional and critical programme focused on the effects of disinformation on democracy, news quality, and the impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI).
Since its inception in 2020, the Summit has grown to become a key reference space in Latin America and beyond, promoting the exchange of experiences, tools, and best practices for a more informed and critical citizenry. This edition will delve deeper into issues such as Artificial Intelligence, political polarisation, platform regulation, and media literacy.
In its four previous editions, the Summit brought together more than 6,000 attendees from 45 countries across five continents, who heard from over 100 prominent speakers.
Over a two-day period, leading experts and thought leaders will participate in panels, workshops, and live interviews. Registration is free and open to participants worldwide. The event will offer simultaneous translation in English and, for the first time, in Portuguese.
Carlos Lauría, Executive Director of the IAPA, stated: “The Summit is a unique opportunity to coordinate efforts and strengthen alliances in the face of one of the greatest challenges of our time. Defending truth and transparency requires collective commitment and a regional vision with global impact.”
“This is a space where voices working every day to defend the right to information come together. Disinformation knows no borders, which is why we need global, coordinated responses,” said Adrián Pino, Executive Director of Proyecto Desconfío.
