CZECH REPUBLIC - This project is developing a network of investigative reporters from Visegrad countries (Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia) who will then collaborate on cross-border environmental investigations.
Deník Referendum has a strong background in environmental journalism, unique experience with investigating environmental crimes and has also participated in a large award-winning international data journalism project and cross-border reporting collaboration. With this programme, they are using their expertise in order to build an internal capacity for organizing and leading environmental investigative cross-border projects in Europe, specifically in the Visegrad region.
The first aim they are consolidating is a DataLab inside the newsroom of Deník Referendum. The team will be able to execute data analyzes and visualizations that would accompany local and cross-border investigations.
