London’s Bureau of Investigative Journalism invites the public into their investigations. Their @bureaulocal is a “collaborative network” including “community-minded citizens…contributing an idea, skill or resource.” #citizeninvestigation

Global Investigative Journalism Network @GIJN just published a terrific guide for citizen investigators. On the heels of Tactical Tech’s @Info_Activism new "kit"). #citizeninvestigation is hot!

Today we're launching a new GIJN Guide for Citizen Investigators to help non-journalists interested in using investigative techniques to uncover wrongdoing & expose the invisible. Illustrations by @Annieillustrate https://t.co/iICplmOwLE @steveouting @Poynter @katecomments @newsu

Just home from Hamburg, where @dig_foundation helped sponsor (bottom row, in good company) GIJN’s global investigative journalism conference. Our panel on #citizeninvestigation was well attended and fascinating.

People seek to have a voice even where there is no rule of law or free press. Like Voice of Rohingya @VoiceRohingya, an information service inside the world’s most populous refugee camp. Volunteers upload information to a WhatsApp group. #citizeninvestigation

Tactical Tech’s @Info_Activism kit for citizen investigators is “outside the realms of journalism and law enforcement.” The kit begins with basics: Investigation Is a Mindset …Without Documentation It Didn’t Happen …If It’s Not Verified, It’s Not Valid. #citizeninvestigation

The smart NGO called Tactical Tech @Info_Activism has posted a guide for citizen investigators: Exposing the Invisible – The Kit. #citizeninvestigation

[Tactical Tech @Info_Activism]

We’re excited to launch “Exposing the Invisible - The Kit”, a self-teaching resource of #investigation techniques, tools and inspiration. Start turning your curiosity into action. https://t.co/CNDr86mXhp

The Berlin Wall only falls once, but people use DIY ways to dig into local issues every day. Example: A man named Francis Koster launched The Pollution Detectives to loan out pollution-detection equipment and help citizens investigate pollution in schools. #citizeninvestigation

We all remember the Berliners hammering down the wall 30 years ago, but other activists were digging – as the wall fell, some Berliners “tracked down hidden companies, properties and finances of the Stasi” https://t.co/wxpZpVoixM #citizeninvestigation
