Join us at Trust Conference 2026

As AI reshapes our information systems, economies and societies, how can we align technological advancement with public interest and accountability? How do we defend democracy and trust in the face of increasingly sophisticated disinformation tactics? And as civic space shrinks around the world, what can journalists and civil society actors do to resist?

You are warmly invited to join us on 4 and 5 November at the Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre in London to explore the latest developments and opportunities to drive change on these and other critical current issues.
