Dünya çapında bağımsız medyaya ve demokratik ilkelere yönelik saldırıların olduğu bir dönemde Küresel Araştırmacı Gazetecilik Ağı 16 yeni üye kuruluşu ağırlıyor. Böylece GIJN’nin küresel ağı 88 ülkeden 227 üye kuruluşa ulaştı.
GIJN’s latest membership class includes its first two members from Francophone Africa and three new members in the Middle East/North Africa. They range from investigative newsrooms and media development groups to university-based centers and cross-border networks. GIJN also welcomed members from six previously unrepresented countries: Cameroon, Malta, Paraguay, Palestine, Senegal, and the Slovak Republic.
