Cross-border journalism has reshaped investigative reporting over the past two decades — but as the model matures, it faces real pressure: inequities between partners, funding strain, and the question of whether collaboration can remain both ambitious and sustainable.
Recorded live at the International Journalism Festival in Perugia, this episode brings together three leading practitioners to examine what makes transnational investigations work and what must change. Marina Walker Guevara of the Pulitzer Center, Laurent Richard of Forbidden Stories, and Hoda Osman of Arab Reporters for Investigative Journalism draw on recent projects to discuss trust, equity, digital security, and the future of a model that, at its best, ensures no story dies with the journalist who started it.
