Abstract

2024 is a political year for the Republic of Indonesia. The democratic celebration will take place through the General Election (Pemilu) on February 14, 2024, and the simultaneous Regional Head Elections (Pilkada) on November 27, 2024. The complexity of the 2024 Election raises many important issues that need to be covered by journalists, such as the stamina of election officials and the potential for increasingly massive fraud. Press freedom is an important pillar in a democratic country. This study aims to analyze the activities of AJI Pekanbaru in building journalist capacity in covering the 2024 Election using the theory of innovation diffusion. The main focus of this study is to understand how the activities of the Alliance of Independent Journalists (AJI) Pekanbaru play a role in building journalist capacity in covering the 2024 Election. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through interviews, observation, and documentation. The results show that AJI Pekanbaru actively organizes various activities that prioritize innovative approaches, compared to other journalist organizations in Riau. These activities included technical training on various digital verification tools to counter misinformation and disinformation, collaborative Focus Groups Discussion (FGD) across religions and communities, and training to improve journalists' digital security capacity to protect data, identities, and reporting activities from cyber threats. These findings indicate that AJI Pekanbaru plays a crucial role as an innovation agent in building the capacity of regional journalists.
