About us
The Global Investigative Journalism Network serves as the international hub for the world’s investigative reporters. Our core mission is to support and strengthen investigative journalism around the world—with special attention to those from repressive regimes and marginalized communities. At the heart of GIJN is an international association of nonprofit journalism organizations. From its founding in 2003, GIJN has grown to include 250 member groups in 91 countries. Today, with a staff based in 24 countries, GIJN works in a dozen languages to link together the world’s most enterprising journalists, giving them the tools, technology, and training to go after abuses of power and lack of accountability Every two years, GIJN holds the Global Investigative Journalism Conference, which has brought together more than 8,000 journalists from 140 countries since 2001. During this conference, it also awards the coveted Global Shining Light Awards, given to journalists in developing or transitioning countries for outstanding investigative journalism under threat or duress. GIJN runs multilingual publishing and social media feeds on 20 platforms in 12 languages, featuring trends, events, news and techniques, and its free online Resource Center is used by journalists in 100 countries per day in 14 languages (English, Arabic, Bahasa Indonesia, Bangla, Chinese, French, German, Hindi, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Urdu). Since its set up in 2012, the GIJN Help Desk has also responded to over 15,000 requests for assistance from around the world. GIJN is a registered U.S. nonprofit corporation, which receives grants from such donors as well as donations from individuals. These funds support our work training and networking the world's investigative journalists to report and collaborate on corruption, lack of accountability and abuses of power.
