The Center for Collaborative Investigative Journalism (CCIJ) brings together investigative reporters, data scientists and visual storytellers to carry out ongoing investigations into key global issues.
CCIJ works in and with underserved communities and with journalists who in many cases would not have had the opportunity to participate in an international project.
One of their mission is to influence global discourse and spark policy change around the issues on which we work.
They also work with more than 170 journalists from more than 35 countries in Africa, South America, Asia, Europe, and North America.
CCIJ supports its members through editing, advising, identifying opportunities and providing training.
In addition to publishing their journalists’ work on CCIJ’s website, CCIJ partners with CNN Africa, The Guardian, The Boston Globe, NPR News, and a plethora of African news outlets to assist journalists in getting their work published in well-respected news sources.
