Saudi Journalists Association Attends IFJ Meetings in London

London, The Saudi Journalists Association participated as an observer in the International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) meetings held yesterday and hosted by the UK National Union of Journalists. Discussions focused on the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on journalism and journalist safety in conflict zones.

The IFJ pledged support for developing journalists’ skills to adapt to the rapid evolution of journalistic tools, including the growing influence of AI and its applications. Internally, the IFJ addressed its budget, reviewed its financial report, and finalized its work rules.

Saudi Journalists Association Chairman Adhwan Al-Ahmari highlighted the importance of building bridges with international press federations and learning from their experiences to further develop the Saudi association. “This marks the first time the association has participated as an observer after joining the IFJ late last year,” Al-Ahmari said. “Our goal is to play a more significant role within the federation in the com
ing period.”
