Korea Journalism Review on Global Investigative Reporting

By |

GIJN is featured in the July cover story of Newspapers & Broadcasting, the monthly journalism review published by the Korea Press Foundation. The issue focuses on the role of nonprofits in the global spread of investigative journalism, and also features GIJN members International Consortium of Investigative Journalists and Investigative Reporters and Editors. South Korea hosts a growing investigative journalism tradition, and our colleagues there recently started the first investigative reporting nonprofit in Northeast Asia, Newstapa — the Korea Center for Investigative Journalism. The KCIJ gets much of its funding from thousands of memberships.

Mexican Journalist Marcela Turati: “Don’t Abandon Us”

By |

Journalist Marcela Turati has gained global attention for her compassionate and committed reporting on the victims of Mexico’s drug wars. An investigative reporter for the magazine Proceso, she is co-founder of Periodistas de a Pie (Journalists on Foot), a network that supports journalists covering issues such as poverty and human rights. The Nieman Fellows at Harvard University, in choosing her for the 2013 Louis M. Lyons Award for Conscience and Integrity in Journalism, called Turati “a standard-bearer for the journalists who have risked their lives to document the devastating wave of violence in Mexico,” and saluted her “courage… journalistic excellence and leadership.”  
On June 25, Turati gave the keynote speech at the Investigative Reporters and Editors (IRE) annual conference in San Antonio, Texas.
