Agenda: Uncovering secret societies
The International Press Corps Committee convenes to explore the hidden world of secret societies—organizations that operate in the shadows, shaping politics, economies, and culture without public scrutiny. A notable example is Skull and Bones, a secretive society at Yale University whose members have historically gone on to hold positions of significant influence. This session will examine the role of investigative journalism in uncovering such networks, the tools and strategies journalists use, and the ethical and personal risks involved in pursuing the truth. Debate, constant crisis updates, and the power behind journalism will give participants insights into how journalists navigate secrecy and verify information, highlighting the importance of transparency, accountability, and international cooperation in bringing hidden forces to light.
