450 Editors from all over the globe came to the 15th World Editors Forum in Göteborg, Sweden, in June 2008, the largest meeting of its kind anywhere. We hope that an even greater number will join us in at the 16th World Editors Forum, being held in Hyderabad, India in November 2009.

The program for the 16th World Editors Forum in Hyderabad is still being organized. Here is a selection of subjects from the seven sessions in
Göteborg:
 
- Will Web 2.0 give birth to Journalism 2.0?
 - Are integrated newsrooms really working?
 - New media training for the new newsroom
 - Is mobile news the new gold mine?  

Of the 1,500 publishers and managers of newspapers from around the world who attend the annual conference, a third are senior newsroom editors. Aside from a full roster of speakers and debaters on current topics of concern, it is a unique opportunity to network. You can probe the brains of some of the world's best editors, senior news execs, publishers and experts. Plus, when you register for the Forum, you can attend WAN Congress sessions of your choice.

In June 2008, the 15th World Editors Forum welcomed 450 editors, a record number, from across the globe.
