The Ghana Journalists Association (GJA) Friday night, marked this year’s World Press Freedom Day with a celebration honouring 24 distinguished individuals and institutions for their exceptional contributions to media freedom and development in Ghana. Held at the Alisa Hotel in Accra, the event was not only a commemoration but also a recommitment to safeguarding press freedom amid emerging challenges — particularly the growing influence of artificial intelligence (AI) on journalism. This year’s theme, “Reporting in the Brave New World – The Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Press Freedom and the Media”, framed the dual purpose of the celebration: honouring the past and preparing for the future.
