AFP at major media conference in Argentina

On 19 and 20 September, AFP took part in the annual General Assembly of ADEPA (Asociación de Entidades Periodísticas Argentinas), the influential association of Argentine media, held in Posadas, in the north of the country.

AFP was represented by Philippe Bernès-Lasserre, Argentina and Paraguay Bureau Chief; Nadia Nasanovsky, Digital Investigation Training Co-ordinator for Latin America; and Lorena Ponce de León, Commercial Manager for Argentina, Uruguay, and Paraguay.

The main topics were the challenges of diversifying content, the hunt for new audiences, artificial intelligence, and the tense media situation under President Milei. Delegates also attended an AFP conference on its experience and digital investigation network.

ADEPA noted that the online digital investigation workshop led by Nadia Nasanovsky last May was its most successful training this year, attracting more than 140 participants.
