From going undercover in the international porn industry to exposing the secrets of algorithms, investigative journalists left little to the imagination as they shared the tricks of their trade at IJ4EU UNCOVERED 2024.
In the industrial chic of a former furniture factory in Athens, hundreds of journalists explored the complexities of cross-border collaboration at the annual conference of the Investigative Journalism for Europe (IJ4EU) programme.
Taking place on September 25 and 26, the event brought together two communities: past and present IJ4EU grantees and international attendees of the iMEdD International Journalism Forum, which hosted UNCOVERED.
After two days of debates and workshops, UNCOVERED climaxed with a ceremony for winners of the IJ4EU Impact Awards, celebrating excellence in transnational investigative reporting.
UNCOVERED was organised by the European Centre for Press and Media Freedom (ECPMF), in partnership with the International Press Institute (IPI), which leads the IJ4EU consortium, and the European Journalism Centre and Arena for Journalism in Europe.
