Global Investigative Journalism Network (https://archive.gijn.org/tag/citizen-investigation/)
To share best practices from our most recent global conference, GIJC21, we are releasing a series of videos from the event’s many seminars, panels, and workshops. This latest installment focuses on investigative tips and tools for using satellite imagery, flight tracking, and exposing disinformation.
GIJN’s ever-growing Resource Center added many new or substantially revamped guides this year, including packages on climate change, land ownership, women journalists, data journalism, tracking planes, and working with whistleblowers.
Citizens can investigate, and they do — all over the world. Today we’re launching a new GIJN guide to help non-journalists investigate even more. It’s full of techniques used by investigative journalists that will be helpful to citizen investigators, too. These include searching the internet, finding out who owns corporations, investigating politicians, and much more.
