    • The first part of this half-day workshop will offer a hands-on introduction to some of the most powerful AI-driven research tools available to journalists today — including Gemini, Pinpoint, and NotebookLM — exploring how they can help reporters unlock hidden stories, interrogate large document collections, and work more efficiently without compromising editorial standards.

      The second part shifts focus to the newsroom level, equipping editors and managers with the knowledge and frameworks needed to avoid the pitfalls of Shadow AI - the unsanctioned, uncoordinated use of AI tools that can expose newsrooms to significant editorial and reputational risk without significantly increasing efficiencies - and to harness AI models and agents strategically to rebuild and future-proof their workflows.

    • Climate change cannot be solved by any single sector acting alone. This session examines how meaningful collaboration between philanthropic organisations, news media, policymakers, and other key stakeholders can produce more than the sum of its parts - driving coverage that is not only rigorous and far-reaching, but capable of delivering tangible benefits for the communities most exposed to the climate crisis.

    • In politically polarized societies, journalists covering power, corruption, and human rights face compounding risks - from gendered and minority-targeted harassment to state inaction and shrinking civic space. Across Asia, coordinated online hate campaigns against journalists often escalate into real-world violence, while governments tighten their grip on independent media.This session examines the online-to-offline violence continuum, the erosion of press safety, and what practical, cross-border solutions journalists, newsrooms, and regional networks can adopt to better protect their own.

    • Who sets the rules when AI enters the newsroom? This session cuts through the hype to examine what artificial intelligence actually means for journalism — legally, ethically, and strategically. As governments scramble to regulate and newsrooms rush to adopt, media organizations risk being caught between innovation and accountability.

      Panelists will explore the regulatory landscape taking shape across Asia and beyond, the ethical lines that must not be crossed, and the strategic decisions that will define which news organizations thrive in an AI-driven media environment.

    • Climate change is among the most consequential stories of our time. Environmental reporting however routinely collides with powerful political and economic interests, while shrinking newsroom budgets leave little room for the ambitious, sustained coverage the crisis demands. Transforming climate journalism requires a fundamental shift in approach: embracing its inherently cross-border nature, pooling resources across newsrooms, and producing stories that drive tangible impact for the communities most affected.

      The Climate Collaboration Challenge Asia, launched by AAJA-Asia, the Temasek Foundation, and climateXchange, is rising to that challenge. This session showcases the programme's participating teams, each delivering a five-minute pitch of their collaborative cross-border climate project before a jury of senior news professionals. The winning consortium(s) will receive a grant of up to USD 15,000 to develop and publish their work.

      Before the winners' announcement, Ralph Gregor, Senior Manager for Digital Strategy at Inquirer.net will present "Asean vs. Plastic" - a crossborder collaborative journalism project involving Deduktif.id (Indonesia) Inquirer.net (Philippines), Malaysiakini (Malaysia), Mediacorp (Singapore), which was awarded a grant at N3Con 2025. Ralph will share with the audience the challenges the participating newsrooms met for jointly produce this exciting projects and the lessons they learned in the process.

    • In today’s rapidly shifting media and information environment, strategic communication is no longer only about external messaging - it is also about how organizations communicate internally, lead teams through change, and stay aligned under pressure. From evolving audience behaviors and platform disruption to economic uncertainty and cross-border collaboration, professionals must communicate with clarity, credibility, and purpose.

      This session explores how journalists, communications professionals, and emerging leaders can strengthen both outward-facing and internal communication strategies.

      Topics include stakeholder management, team alignment, decision-making during change, reputation management, and building trust with audiences and colleagues alike.

      Participants will leave with practical tools to communicate more effectively in dynamic environments.

    • Influencers and content creators are rewriting the rules of audience engagement — and news organisations are struggling to keep up. With younger audiences increasingly turning to social media personalities over traditional media for information, journalism faces an existential question: how do you remain relevant, trusted, and financially sustainable in a creator-driven media landscape?

      This session gathers media leaders and digital innovators to share strategies, lessons learned, and bold ideas for reaching new audiences without compromising what makes journalism indispensable.

    • A layoff forces a question most people avoid: what do you actually want? This session gives you tools to answer it honestly.

      You will use a 2x2 to map joy against growth, revealing what your career choices say about your priorities. You will apply the power-influence matrix to workplaces you are already in, learning to spot allies and read power dynamics before your next move. Then you will build three Odyssey Plans, each a different version of where your life and career could go.

      Based on the Designing Your Life framework, this exercise breaks tunnel vision and opens up options you may have dismissed too quickly. You will rate each plan on confidence, engagement, and alignment with who you are, and walk away with a clearer, more honest picture of what is possible.

      This session is part of the conference's "Career - Leadership Track" meant for mid-career journalists.

    • Immersive digital storytelling - scrollytelling, interactive data visualisations, dynamic maps - was once the exclusive domain of specialist teams with deep expertise in web design, coding, and data analysis. Recent developments in AI models and AI agents are changing that.

      This hands-on workshop introduces participants to Claude Code, an AI-powered coding tool that makes it possible for journalists and editors with only basic web development knowledge to build compelling, interactive data stories from scratch.

      Working from a single dataset, attendees will build an interactive data story with scroll-driven animations and dynamic charts, and leave with both the skills and the confidence to bring this kind of storytelling into their own newsroom. The session will be accessible for anyone who knows basic web development skills, i.e. a bit of HTML, CSS and Javascript

    • Journalists and media leaders are working under increasing pressure, without space to reflect on how leadership decisions are made. This session brings together two inclusion-focused media leaders, working in investigative and independent journalism, to explore how well-being practices can be integrated into newsrooms and in personal work schedules without becoming another burden.

      Drawing on lived leadership experience across diverse cultural contexts, we examine well-being as a collective practice rather than an individual coping strategy. The session gives participants practical insights into how reflection and boundaries/discipline can support ethical decision-making and long-term sustainability in journalism. With breathing exercises and space for sharing experiences.

    • Communicating across cultures requires more than translation—it requires awareness, empathy, and intentionality. In Asia’s highly diverse media landscape, journalists and communicators often engage multilingual, multicultural, and cross-border audiences with different expectations, identities, and lived experiences.

      This session will explore how to create messages and stories that resonate across communities while avoiding stereotypes, exclusion, or cultural blind spots.

      Topics may include inclusive language, accessibility, representation, communicating in crisis situations, and navigating local versus global perspectives. Ideal for journalists, communications professionals, and emerging leaders, this discussion offers practical insights for anyone working across cultures in an interconnected world.

    • This year, we are celebrating the 30th anniversary of AAJA's Asia chapter — a milestone that calls for both reflection and a forward-looking conversation.

      In the first half of this special session, we have invited former AAJA-Asia presidents to look back on their journey: why they joined AAJA in the first place, what role the association has played in their careers, what sets AAJA apart from other journalism networks, and a defining memory from their time leading the chapter.

      In the second half, AAJA leaders will share their vision for the future — how they are navigating the industry's challenges within their own organizations, and what a community like AAJA can and should do to better support journalists: helping them stay relevant, grow their careers, and weather an increasingly turbulent profession.
