Shuwei Fang

Shuwei Fang is Associate Director, Programs at Open Society Foundations where she has spent over a decade advancing civic media and information technology via grants and hybrid investments. At Open Society, she recently led the AI in Journalism Futures project, one of the first significant global attempts to understand how the long-term impact of AI might fundamentally reshape the information ecosystem. Previously, she has held various roles across technology, media and telecoms investment, as well as in startups. While at the Shorenstein Center, Fang will explore the medium- to long-term impact of AI on the information ecosystem, and what policy and/or market interventions are needed to support a sustainable and equitable system of media in the public interest.
