History

GIJN was formed in 2003 as a loose network in support of the biennial Global Investigative Journalism Conference (GIJC), which had been launched two years earlier by veteran journalists Brant Houston and Nils Mulvad.[4][5] The GIJN secretariat was officially formed after participants of the 7th GIJC in Kiev voted for the formation of a provisional secretariat in 2013.[6][7]Шаблон:Secondary source needed The organization registered as a nonprofit corporation in Maryland, United States of America, in 2014 and was approved as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service in October 2014.[8]

In late 2023, GIJN was designated as "undesirable" in Russia.[9] Guidestar rates GIJN as 'Gold-level' for transparency of the organization's finances and leadership.[10]

Global Investigative Journalism Conference (GIJC)

GIJN co-organizes a biennial Global Investigative Journalism Conference (GIJC), to bring together investigative journalists across the globe to share their knowledge and expertise with each other and to form cross-border networks for collaborative reporting and referrals.[16][17]

The GIJC has been held in Copenhagen in 2001 and 2003,[4] Amsterdam (2005),[18] Toronto (2007),[19] Lillehammer (2008),[20] Geneva (2010),[21] Kiev (2011),[22] Rio de Janeiro (2013),[23] Lillehammer (2015),[24] Johannesburg (2017)[25] and Hamburg (2019). The latest conference was held in Gothenburg, Sweden in 2023.[26] In 2021, owing to the Coronavirus pandemic, the conference was held online only.[27]

Since 2014, GIJN has organized investigative journalism conferences in Asia. The first Asian Investigative Journalism Conference was held in Manila (2014),[28] the second in Kathmandu (2016),[29] and the third in Seoul (2018).[30]

Global Shining Light Award

GIJN gives out Global Shining Light Awards for excellence in investigative reporting "in a developing or transitioning country, done under threat, duress, or in the direst of conditions."[31]

The awards are presented to recipients in an awards ceremony held every two years at its biennial GIJC events. Past recipients include the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP),[32][33] Khadija Ismayilova from Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty,[31] and Venezuelan investigative news site Armando.info.[34]
