Value proposition

A donor-supported investigative news outlet with a global reporting team. We tell stories that rock that world.


The International Consortium of Investigative Journalists tells stories that show how the world really works, triggering positive change.

We are driven by the belief that citizens have the right to be better informed, that access to independently sourced facts is not only essential for democracy but is also a fundamental human right.

Transparency is at the center of everything we do.

ICIJ has directed the largest cross-border reporting initiatives in history, convincing reporters across the globe to set aside traditional rivalries to uncover corruption, abuses of power and grave harms inflicted on the world's most vulnerable people. We work with a global network that includes more than 100 media partners and hundreds of the world’s best investigative journalists.

Our track record of breaking stories that rock the world has made ICIJ an indispensable news source, and a leader in the global battle for truth.
