This year's Journalism Day of the Quality in Journalism Association (QuaJou) promises a broad spectrum of current media topics on November 20, 2025 at the ZHAW in Winterthur. The event will be opened by Swiss satirist Lisa Christ, who is known for her feminist-philosophical voice in the cabaret scene.
From media language to the AI revolution
Freelance journalist Natalia Widla will place a special focus on the power of words in reporting on violence against women with her keynote speech. As co-author of "Niemals aus Liebe: Männergewalt an Frauen", she will show how media language shapes society's perception of femicide.
Another highlight promises to be the discussion between communications expert Ivana Leiseder and Andreas Hugi, head of the Furrerhugi agency, about the tension between PR and journalism. This exchange of blows will be moderated by Edith Hollenstein from the Tages-Anzeiger.

Future prospects and practical insights
The event will also offer insights into the challenges of photojournalism in the age of AI, the motivation of young media professionals and the future of online journalism. The event will conclude with a keynote speech by Christoph Zimmer from the Spiegel Group on the AI revolution in journalism.
JournalismusTag.25 starts on November 20, 2025 at 12 noon at the IAM Institute for Applied Media Studies at the ZHAW in Winterthur. Interested parties can find the complete program and tickets at www.journalismustag.ch.
