About the network
EIC is a major European cross-border journalism network founded in 2015 by a Romanian journalist, Stefan Candea. To maintain a broad perspective and ensure national exclusivity, while eliminate “national bias”, EIC generally limits membership to a single media outlet per country. At present, the network has 11 members, and includes distinguished outlets such as Der Spiegel (Germany), Mediapart (France), Le Soir (Belgium) and Politiken (Denmark). Among the collaborating partners, you can find the BBC, the Sunday Times, the Washington Post, El Mundo and the Dagens Nyheter. The full list of members and other collaborating partners can be found here.
The network connects independent newspapers, digital outlets, and non-profits to jointly research, investigate and publish stories of European significance. It operates via distributed collaboration rather than a centralized headquarters. Member newsrooms investigate issues simultaneously, share data and sources, and publish coordinated findings in multiple languages and local contexts.
EIC’s famous groundbreaking investigations includes the Football Leaks (the largest leak in sports history), the Malta Files, and investigations into EU weapons policies during the 2015 Paris terror attacks. See the full list of projects here.
