2023 Global Investigative Journalism Conference: The Program
Get ready for GIJC23! We’ve been waiting since before the pandemic to bring together the world’s investigative journalists, and we’re almost there. We expect a record 2,000 journalists from over 110 countries to join us in historic Gothenburg, Sweden, this Sept. 19-22.
Here’s an early look at the schedule. We’ve integrated more than 400 pitches and proposals, as well as what past attendees have told us they most valued. You’ll find nearly 200 workshops, expert panels, networking sessions, and special events. The program will be available at the end of August or early September for registered participants on our conference app, Sched. There you can make your own schedule, find colleagues, and network across countries and topics.
Meanwhile, have a look and, if you haven’t made up your mind yet, we hope you’ll join us in Gothenburg. The conference (and nearby hotels) are starting to fill up, so don’t wait too long to register.
Along with the world-class networking, receptions, parties, and special events, here are some highlights of the program:
- Watchdog Reporting in the Age of Digital Subversion
