Please send your stories in English -- a decent AI, DeepL, or Word translation (the software has a good one) will do -- to me via PM. I'll pay a small honorarium for contributions that I use, and you get a credit. #investigativejournalism #unesco

I've been asked by Unesco to revise Story-Based Inquiry: A manual for Investigative Journalists (2009). If you're an investigative reporter, you can be part of it. Send me a story that you researched and composed around a timeline, a map of actors and scenes, or both. More in next post.
