The Global Investigative Journalism Network (GIJN) is an international association of nonprofit organizations that support, promote and produce investigative journalism. GIJN holds conferences, conducts trainings, provides resources and consulting and encourages the creation of similar nonprofit groups. It was founded in 2003 when more than 300 journalists from around the world gathered for the second Global Investigative Journalism Conference in Copenhagen. Since then it has grown to 173 member organizations in 75 countries.
