NEW YORK - The Global Investigative Journalism Network launches a crowdfunding campaign to raise funds to bring promising journalists from developing and transitioning countries to the Global Investigative Journalism Conference.
The crowdfunding campaign was launched on Indiegogo on August 20 and runs for 31 days.
The money will be used to bring promising journalists from developing and transitioning countries to the Global Investigative Journalism Conference, where they'll get training in state-of-the-art investigative reporting, data journalism, and cross-border collaboration. This is a great way to help fight corruption and stand up for accountability and transparency around the world.

The Global Investigative Journalism Conference takes place from October 10 to 15, 2013 in Rio De Janeiro.
