Ignacio Ramonet Visits Morocco for Lectures on AI, Journalism, and Geopolitics
Al Bayane newspaper will host journalist Ignacio Ramonet from April 14 to 19. A former director of the French edition of Le Monde Diplomatique, currently head of its Spanish-language editorial team, and a former professor at the Royal College in Rabat, Ramonet will lead, among other meetings and exchanges, two exclusive conferences in Casablanca and Rabat. These events will address highly topical themes, offering expert insight into the future of journalism and contemporary geopolitics in a rapidly shifting global landscape.
Ramonet will deliver his first conference on Wednesday, April 15, at 4:30 p.m., at the Auditorium of the Hassan II Mosque in Casablanca. The lecture, entitled “Journalism in the Age of Artificial Intelligence and the Quest for Truth,” will explore pressing questions around information, technology, and the search for truth in the digital era.
The following day, Thursday, April 16, at 5:00 p.m. in Rabat, he will present a second conference at the Auditorium of the National Higher Institute of Music and Choreographic Arts, on : “Power and Law: Geostrategy in a Multipolar World.”
Following these engagements, Ramonet will travel to Tangier, the city of his childhood, for reunions and visits to both its iconic and contemporary landmarks.
Ramonet’s presence in Morocco -an influential author and a recognized figure in journalism and international relations- lends this dual event significant media and intellectual visibility.
By hosting such a prominent figure, Al Bayane offers intellectuals and socio-political actors an opportunity for meaningful exchange, given the cultural and political relevance of the two conferences and their positive impact on the country’s image.
The themes addressed in these conferences are of pressing relevance and will serve as a platform for reflection on the transformations shaping the media landscape and the emerging global geopolitical balance.
As Morocco is currently deeply engaged in forward-looking strategic, economic, and political dynamics, these two meetings are conceived as open forums for strategic reflection-privileged spaces for dialogue aimed at deciphering the challenges that will shape the country’s environment in the third decade of the new reign.
Ramonet’s visit to Morocco is more than symbolic. A globally renowned thinker and a leading figure of the alter-globalization movement, he embodies excellence in committed journalism and uncompromising critical thought. As a key promoter of Le Monde Diplomatique, he remains a moral and intellectual authority- a “sentinel” whose voice resonates with singular strength in international decision-making circles.
A Tangier native at heart and Moroccan by adoption, he has found in this land a second home. His career is marked by an exceptional historical connection, notably as a professor at the Royal College in Rabat, where he had the privilege of teaching princes, princesses, and other members of the Royal Family in the early 1970s.
A pioneer in information and communication studies, Ignacio Ramonet is a leading voice in the search for truth in an era shaped by social media, fake news, and artificial intelligence.
His perspective -focused on social justice, progress, and digital sovereignty- positions him as a spokesperson for the aspirations of the Global South.
