November highlights from across the Foundation
Promoting Responsible Business
The lack of a clear strategy for corporate AI adoption risks compromising workplace security and poses ethical challenges for employees and society.
It also creates a transparency deficit, which is set to become one of the most pressing risk management concerns for business leaders across the globe.
Last month, in partnership with UNESCO, we introduced our AI Governance Disclosure Initiative which enables companies to evaluate how AI is integrated in their operations, products and services. In this blog, our CEO Antonio Zappulla, and UNESCO's Assistant Director-General for Social and Human Sciences, Gabriela Ramos, outline the initiative and its advantages for corporate leaders.

Strengthening Independent Media
From sifting through vast amounts of data to identify stories, to tailoring content to reader preferences, the technological advancements from AI are continuing to reshape the future of journalism.
As part of our work to strengthen the sustainability of newsrooms, we are offering a mentoring programme to help newsrooms in Argentina, Chile and Uruguay harness the power of AI in journalism.

Enabling Access to the Law
In today's global landscape, press freedom faces increasing pressure in various parts of the world.
A looming foreign agent law in El Salvador has forced many journalists to consider exile to continue their vital work.
In response to these challenges, we've developed a comprehensive guide with SembraMedia to support media professionals when setting up in new jurisdictions. It covers everything from setting up a sustainable media outlet to choosing the right legal status.
