Join us for an informal aperitivo with purpose at this special People, Planet, Pint gathering during the International Journalism Festival in Perugia.

Co-hosted by François Nel, of the Sustainable Innovation and Leadership Accelerator (SILA) at the Media Innovation Studio (UK), and Lara Ayoub, founder of The Media Lab (Jordan), this edition brings climate conversations to the heart of journalism.

Whether you're reporting on the climate crisis, rethinking newsroom practices, or just curious about sustainability, come connect with others who care about the role of media in a changing world.

No pitches. No PowerPoints. No panels. Just people, planet, and pints (or the drink of your choice).

All welcome—journalists, editors, researchers, technologists, and others shaping the future of news.

Let’s talk about how every job is a climate job—and what that means for our industry.

Registration is advised (if you fancy a  free pint or drink of your choice). Free to attend, though registration is required for a free pint.

Venue: Indigo Art Gallery and Café, Via Oberdan 51, Perugia.
