Join us for our inaugural Values in the Media event on 28th November, an afternoon of talks and workshops focused on how the media shapes cultural values and influences what society views as important.

Our panel discussion on the UK media’s role in shaping cultural values will feature: 

• Eliza Anyangwe, Editor, CNN’s As Equals,
• Jeremy Mathieu, Head of Sustainability, ITV,
• Hardeep Matharu, Editor, Byline Times, 
• Nafeez Ahmed, Investigative journalist.

Attendees will also explore their own values and those that have shaped the UK media sector.

Different views of how the world "is" and "should be" are subtly conveyed to us every day, shaping how we think, feel, and what we value as individuals and as a society; how much do we value financial wealth and status, for example, compared to community and flourishing nature? The media plays a key role in shaping these values, influencing cultural priorities and potential for transformational change.

At the same time, the media industry is under immense pressure—navigating social media, misinformation, AI, and eroding trust. As we stand at this critical juncture, what should the future of UK media look like to support both those sharing and receiving the news to thrive? How can a deeper understanding of values help guide the way forward? These are just some of the questions we want to answer.

Please book your free place and share with those in your networks who you think would be interested to attend.
