GIJN Webinar: How Latin America Connects to Your Story

In today’s global landscape, tracing the path of illicit money has become a critical skill for reporters. Join the Global Investigative Journalism Network (GIJN) for a webinar tailored for investigative journalists who have unraveled intricate webs of misconduct that start in Latin America but impact communities around the world.

This session will delve into stories about deforestation, drugs, and mining, providing tips and tools to pursue groundbreaking investigations. From transnational criminal networks to financial manoeuvres used to conceal illicit gains, the webinar will highlight recent investigations that have tracked illegally mined gold from the Amazon to India, cocaine from Colombia to European ports, and unmasked the hidden owners of offshore companies based in Panama and other Latin American countries.

As journalists, understanding the methodology behind corrupt activity and learning how to better expose it is crucial for producing impactful transnational collaborative pieces. In this GIJN webinar, four senior investigative journalists will share lessons learned on how to work beyond borders on local stories about global issues.
