Annalisa Piras: Journalism has an unprecedented, historical responsibility

“In the history of humanity pandemics have always ushered times of profound renewal. In order to ensure that our Post Pandemic response fosters progress and evolution we need to tackle urgently the most crucial of the many intersecting crisis we face: the epistemological crisis, the erosion of the authority of knowledge and the spread of truth decay. That is the crisis wrapping round all the other crises and hindering their solutions.

Those who work in the media and in all other agencies producing societal meaning and purpose have today an unprecedented, historical responsibility.”

Annalisa Piras is a journalist and filmmaker and co-founder and CEO of The Wake Up Foundation, UK/Italy.
