LMF 2025 Program: What to Expect

The LMF 2025 conference will take place in Lviv on May 15–17 with focus theme "Speak the Unspoken: Choices, Decisions, Responsibility." What will the program look like?

As in previous year, the second and third days of the conference will be divided into two streams: Frankly Spoken and Smartly Done.

Frankly Spoken is a worldview-based stream where we’ll discuss the challenges facing media and democracy in a global context. Topics will include information security, freedom of speech, journalistic responsibility, and the role of media in times of change and crisis.

Smartly Done is a practical stream for journalists and communications professionals. Here, we’ll break down real case studies, explore the latest challenges faced by Ukrainian and international media professionals, and share tools for effective work.

In addition, LMF 2025 will feature a cultural program, giving participants a chance to recharge, network, and connect.
