GIJN seeks contributors to write articles related to investigative journalism

The Global Investigative Journalism Network (GIJN) seeks contributors interested in writing articles related to investigative journalism.

GIJN publishes articles about the practice of investigative journalism around the world, and its contributors have expertise in investigative journalism and other related specialised areas relevant to investigative journalism and include journalists, academics, media trainers, and those in GIJN member groups.

The Network’s stories generally run from 500-1500 words, and pay is competitive and dependent on specialisation and experience.

The articles generally hit the basic mechanics of investigations. Interested contributors should send brief pitches along with links to recent work samples and a bio or CV.
