BRIDGE Summit launches exclusive dialogue on digital narratives

The BRIDGE Summit 2025 announced that a high-level closed session chaired by UNESCO will open this year’s event, focusing on the future of information integrity in an era of rapid technological change and rising digital influence on global decision-making.

The exclusive session will gather senior government officials, policymakers, media leaders, experts and major technology companies for one of the summit’s most strategic dialogue tracks. 

Discussions will center on the transformation of the global information ecosystem, the spread of misinformation and the growing impact of narratives on diplomacy, politics and societies.

Participants will explore new models for international cooperation to safeguard truth, rebuild public trust and strengthen collective responses to the challenges posed by real-time digital content.

Organisers say the initiative reinforces the BRIDGE Summit’s role as a global convening space for governments, international organisations and tech actors working on the future of media and communication. 

The session will not aim to impose ready-made solutions but to establish common ground and lay the basis for long-term international dialogue on narrative integrity.

Insights from the meeting will inform future collaborations with organisations active in media development, digital literacy and the protection of information ecosystems.
