Investigative Reporting
We make sure the powerful can’t bury the truth.
ICFJ builds and supports investigative journalism networks to collaborate across borders and hold the powerful to account. We equip reporters to conduct hard-hitting investigations, and to do so in a way that better protects their sources and themselves. The journalists we work with have changed laws, brought down governments and reduced contamination – and they are not finished.
After my Burns fellowship with ICFJ, CNN hired me for their Berlin bureau.
