Today at Dataharvest, the European Investigative Journalism Conference by the @journalismarena.eu our amazing colleagues @olivierhoedeman.bsky.social and @nina-holland.bsky.social did a presentation on the EU deregulation wave and the corporate agenda, with tips and stories to investigate.

The #Dataharvest keynote with @laurentrichard.bsky.social was a fascinating dive into the collaborative, cross-border #journalism of forbiddenstories.org

"It's not easy to team up. It requires a radical sharing attitude - but its urgent. If we think 'we can survive alone' - it's a mistake". #EIJC25

Itโ€™s not just Trump, the EU is also waging an anti-migration crusade The European Unionโ€™s border control policies may not be as visible as Trumpโ€™s but they are just as brutal.

While the worldโ€™s attention is focusing on Trumpโ€™s anti-migration spectacle, the #EuropeanUnion is quietly carrying out its own crackdown. Its policies are far less visible, yet they are just as ruthless. #balkans #migration

Inside the EU regionsโ€™ clandestine journalist-for-hire scheme


The Committee of Regions (CoR) has taken a desperate โ€“ and ethically questionable โ€“ step to make sure it elicits more than a yawn from Brussels correspondents. 

This EU advisory body representing  329 European regions, provinces and cities has no role in European law-making other than providing non-binding opinions, which are mostly ignored. It has limited recognition by EU citizens, and the media rarely reports on its activities. 

It looks like the CoR is desperate to have more public visibility. In September 2022, it entered into a โ€œmedia partnershipโ€ with the Spanish news agency EFE, worth a total of 135,000 euros.
