GIJN Webinar: Investigating Fossil Fuels

In this Global Investigative Journalism Network webinar, journalists will learn key strategies for probing the fossil fuel industry, guided by insights from GIJN’s forthcoming Guide to Investigating Fossil Fuels, which was supported by Journalismfund Europe's Professional Development for Environmental Journalism grant programme.

A panel of expert journalists — all of them chapter authors of the guide — will share their experiences and tools for exposing the industry’s role in the climate crisis, investigating private and state-owned enterprises, analyzing regulatory policies, and evaluating the credibility of proposed climate solutions. Whether you’re new to the topic or looking to deepen your expertise, this session will provide practical advice for impactful reporting on one of the world’s most pressing issues.

The session will be moderated by SEJ member Amy Westervelt, an award-winning investigative journalist and the founder of Drilled, a podcast and media outlet that uncovers the fossil fuel industry’s role in climate misinformation and greenwashing. She brings a sharp focus on holding corporations and governments accountable for their environmental impact.

When: February 20, 2025 @ 3pm Central European Time (9am Eastern Time)
