THE Pulitzer Center is organising and inviting entries for the AI Accountability Fellowships. The programme seeks to support journalists working on AI (artificial intelligence) accountability stories that examine governments and corporations’ uses of predictive and surveillance technologies to guide decisions in policing, medicine, social welfare, the criminal justice system, and more. https://lnkd.in/dVMKFSTq Pulitzer Center
Le 16 juillet, ne manquez pas le nouveau webinaire d'introduction au reportage sur l'intelligence artificielle de la série AI Spotlight ! Apprenez avec le coach Gabriel Geiger, un journaliste spécialisé dans la surveillance et la redevabilité en matière d'algorithmes, comment entamer un reportage sur les technologies de l'IA et leur profonde influence sur la société. Ce cours va décrypter l'histoire de l'IA, le fonctionnement de la technologie et les concepts techniques clés. Nous verrons également quels sont les critères d'un bon reportage sur la redevabilité en matière d'IA et comment passer d'un reportage ponctuel à des enquêtes plus ambitieuses. Nous mettrons l'accent sur les pièges à éviter et présenterons des exemples de reportages réussis. Nous invitons les journalistes résidant en Afrique et en Europe à s'inscrire. Cet événement se déroulera en français et en anglais ! En savoir plus et s'inscrire. 👉 https://bit.ly/AIFRss
Educators: Submit your application now to join the Pulitzer Center’s Information & Artificial Intelligence Teacher Advisory Council! This paid program for educators working with students in grades 4-12 will help to identify the barriers that exist for teachers and students hoping to engage with our in-depth AI accountability stories, and produce resources that allow a broad variety of teachers and students to better engage with AI journalism. Cohort members will support the Pulitzer Center in crafting a programmatic vision for the K12 Teams’ strategic outreach around Information and Artificial Intelligence by exploring questions such as: In what ways does reporting on Information and AI align with broader themes, ideas, and questions explored in K12 classrooms? In what ways are teachers and students struggling to access or understand reporting around Information and AI? How can underreported stories inspire students to reflect on their own lives and histories, cultivate curiosity, and evaluate how their lives connect to the lives of others? Learn more about this opportunity and apply now! Applications are due Wednesday, July 24, 2024. 👉 https://bit.ly/AITeacherF

The "Fighting Words Poetry Contest" asks students to respond to a Pulitzer Center-supported story of their choice through poetry. I was touched to learn that my article "Offtrack: The Long Road to Asylum for LGBTQ Refugees in Greece" struck a chord with Evan Mackett, an 11th-grade student in Michigan. Evan's poem "Wild Violets" is one of this year's contest winners in the Human Rights category. It left me pretty speechless and deeply moved. I have attached a link to Evan's poem. https://lnkd.in/enFWvwjZ
While hearing explosions on the news, “it just twisted something inside of me, like I felt those emotions coming out. I was scared,” said Dalia Amra, a 10th grade student in Ramallah. “I was terrified, actually. It could be me next.” Since before the start of Israel's siege of Gaza, Palestinian mental health has been under distress. In 2022, a collaborative report found that more than half of Palestinian adults in the West Bank and Gaza suffer from depression, about 10 times higher than the global average. The report also noted high rates of PTSD and other mental health issues. That report did not include nearly half of the population in the region, though: Palestinian youth. This short documentary film explores the trauma experienced by Palestinian youth and their families living in the West Bank as they watch the carnage on their friends and family through the news and social media. “This brings anxiety. Most of them, they feel hopeless, they feel helpless,” says Muna Odeh, a psychotherapist in Ramallah who runs a mental health hotline for Palestinians. “This time, it is hard for them. It is hard as a youth to live in a place where nothing is certain.” A documentary by grantee Kern Hendricks for Undark Magazine. 👉 https://bit.ly/4bAtL2a
