We are delighted to announce just a few of the key experts and advocates in journalism, verification and citizen media who will be joining us at CheckCon on Saturday 22nd April, in Beirut. Fuelled by their experience of the previous day’s Friday conference, they will be developing and continuing to discuss the themes, offering the breadth and depth of their experience towards the unconference format, which is an open invitation, and free to attend. Tickets are going fast though – you can get yours now by signing up on Eventbrite.
