Abstract: Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have become instrumental in modeling graph-structured data, with applications spanning diverse fields. Despite their prowess, challenges such as susceptibility to adversarial attacks, inherent biases, and opacity in decision-making processes have emerged. While efforts exist to address individual trustworthiness facets like robustness, interpretability, and fairness, a comprehensive solution remains elusive. This study introduces \Algname(\unite), a novel end-to-end framework uniquely designed to holistically integrate these dimensions. Unlike traditional approaches, \Algname leverages the intricate relationships between these aspects in graph data, presenting optimization goals grounded in information-theoretic principles. Preliminary experiments on real-world datasets indicate that \Algname outperforms existing methods, achieving a harmonious blend of interpretability, robustness, and fairness. This work addresses the pressing challenges in GNNs for trustworthy graph neural networks, paving the way for their broader adoption in critical domains.
