The Mobile Journalism in the Age of Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) conference is currently being held in Cairo at the Arab Academy for Science and Technology.
During its two days, a number of academics, chief editors of media and press organizations, and journalists from various Arab nations are taking part in over twenty training workshops and nine discussion sessions. There are 1800 journalists present at the conference.
As one of the new forms of content development created by digital media, the International Mobile Journalism Conference is considered the first of its kind in the Arab world. It will cover topics pertaining to the production of journalistic content via mobile, whether in press websites, media institutions, or through social media platforms.
The first edition of the conference, “Mobile Journalism…Opportunities and Challenges,” was held at Future University last year. It covered a wide range of topics, chief among them being mobile journalism in the era of digital media and press coverage.
The Arab Academy’s president, the dean of Cairo University’s Faculty of Mass Communication, the Egyptian minister of social solidarity, as well as several academics and members of the media from Egypt and the Arab world, attended the opening of the conference.
