Seeing and believing: photography and photojournalism in a changing world

Date/Time: December 10, 2025 14:00:00 - 15:30:00

How does The Guardian choose which photographic collections to commission? What impact has the decolonisation agenda had on the images they select, and how can NGOs increase the likelihood of their work being published?  These are just some of the questions we will explore with Fiona Shields (Head of Photography, The Guardian) during our next event.

We will also take a deep-dive into the murky world of AI-generated imagery that is rapidly challenging our ability to believe what we see, and undermining progress on dignified and fair representation.

Join us for a discussion with leading thinkers and academics to explore the emerging threats posed by Generative AI.

Speakers

  • Arsenii Alenichev - Researcher at the Institute of Tropical Medicine, Antwerp
  • Fred Ritchin - Dean Emeritus at the International Center of Photography (former Photo Editor at New York Times magazine)
  • Fiona Shields - Head of Photography at The Guardian

14:00 -15.30 Wednesday December 10th on Zoom
