What We Do
Championing Truth, Collaboration, and Accountability Across Africa
At the Impact Africa Journalists Consortium (IAJC), we empower journalists to tell the stories that matter most — stories that challenge power, inspire action, and create positive change. Through collaboration, training, advocacy, and partnerships, we strengthen investigative journalism as a pillar of democracy and accountability across Africa.
Cross-Border Investigations
We unite investigative journalists from diverse African nations to collaborate on high-impact stories that expose corruption, promote transparency, and drive accountability across borders for lasting social change.
Capacity Building
Through specialized training, mentorship programs, and journalism fellowships, we empower media professionals with the technical and ethical skills needed to produce accurate, data-driven, and solution-oriented investigations.
Advocacy & Press Freedom
We champion press freedom and defend journalists’ rights by advocating for access to information, media independence, and protection from censorship, threats, or unlawful persecution across Africa.
Knowledge Sharing
IAJC facilitates knowledge exchange through research publications, digital resources, and data-driven insights that strengthen journalistic excellence, ethical standards, and the impact of investigative storytelling across Africa.
Events & Awards
We organize annual conferences, dialogues, and journalism awards that celebrate innovation, courage, and accountability while fostering collaboration and best practices among Africa’s leading investigative journalists and editors.
Partnerships & Collaboration
We collaborate with media houses, journalism schools, and civil society organizations to advance investigative reporting, strengthen democratic values, and amplify Africa’s voice on the global stage.
