How to be an investigations editor

Sign up or log in to save this to your schedule, view media, leave feedback and see who's attending!

If you are the editor of an investigative team, your tasks are different from your reporters'. You must plan ahead and have an overview of the workflow; you have to decide which cross-border projects to join; how to develop topics and team skills. At the same time you need to make sure the results meet high journalistic standards. This session will have a special focus on factchecking routines, thanks to the learning Lighthouse Reports' managing editor Daniel Howden is willing to share. Let's gather experienced editors around the table to exchange on tips, failures and experiences from the job, moderated by Elisa Simantke, senior investigative editor at paper trail media. Join if you are the editor or leader of an investigative team!
If you have valuable experiences to share yourself, please write to media@journalismarena.eu so we can feature it in the session.
