Corruption, corporate greed and governmental abuses of power have become an everyday reality. Around the world, public service journalism is under threat from shrinking press freedoms and the spread of mis-and disinformation. It is getting harder for newsrooms to stay afloat, and as democracy declines, so do the safeguards of our freedoms. We must stand firm against these threats, shining a light on injustice and offering the public a safe and steady alternative to a media in freefall.
We are an independent global newsroom that has been at the forefront of groundbreaking investigations since 2010. Our impact-led process ensures everything we publish challenges injustice and drives fact-led change, meanwhile upholding press freedoms. With your support, 2026 will be our biggest year yet: our anti-corruption, environment, global health, local community and tech teams will continue to publish ambitious investigations, holding power to account and amplifying marginalised voices.
