About us.
Meet the international journalists and newsrooms behind the Environmental Reporting Collective.
The Environmental Reporting Collective is a growing network of journalists and newsrooms from over a dozen countries, all dedicated to investigating environmental crimes collaboratively.
Our collaborative approach to journalism means that all our content – stories, videos, photos, etc. – are free to be republished and adapted by any media organisation (under Creative Commons license BY-NC 4.0).
This allows us to investigate and expose global environmental crimes on a much larger scale, for three reasons:
COLLABORATIVE REPORTING: Our journalists work together to fill in gaps in each others’ reporting, especially when tracing environmental crimes across borders.
GLOBAL ISSUES, LOCAL PERSPECTIVES: Newsrooms are encouraged to adapt our work to fit local contexts.
A WIDER AUDIENCE: With over 20 partners in 4 continents, our journalists’ stories can have a much higher impact.
