| Dear Reader,
Remember the Panama Papers? Cyprus Confidential? Caspian Cabals?
These weren't just investigative stories; they triggered global change. And in 2025, that impact continues: - Cypriot lawmakers are pressuring the country's tax officials to explain their failure to collect $15 million in taxes from a now-defunct company tied to Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich.
- Kazakhstan is pressing forward with a $160 billion arbitration case in Geneva against Western oil companies over profits from the Kashagan oil field.
- In Nigeria, Christiana "Christy Gold" Uadiale was convicted on six counts of human trafficking.
This is what makes ICIJ different: our investigations don't end with publication. They spark reforms, legal action and accountability — rippling out for years after the headlines fade.
But here's the truth: this work is only possible with people like you. Following the leads, connecting the dots and sustaining long-term investigations takes time, courage — and resources.
Will you help us keep building on this momentum? |
