What is the Global Investigative Journalism Conference?
Every two years since 2001, the world’s investigative journalism community has joined together in a different city, and the results have been extraordinary. The GIJCs are giant training conferences, with practical panels and workshops on the latest investigative techniques, data analysis, cross-border collaboration, and more by the best journalists in the field. Our conferences have trained over 10,000 journalists and resulted in the founding of investigative teams, nonprofit newsrooms, and headline-making stories around the world.
The 2023 Global Investigative Journalism Conference (#GIJC23) is brought to you by the Global Investigative Journalism Network (GIJN), Fojo Media Institute at Linnaeus University, and Föreningen Grävande Journalister, Sweden’s national association of investigative journalists.
Who will be the speakers and what can we expect?
We’ll be hosting many of the world’s top investigative reporters, editors, producers, and data journalists, as well as key resource people on freedom of information, media law, security, and teaching. Check out our amazing lineup of close to 300 speakers here. We’ve also arranged some 200 workshops, expert panels, networking sessions, and special events. See the full conference program here.
Our Call for Ideas closed on January 10, 2023. We received more than 400 suggestions from people worldwide — thank you! If you haven’t heard by now about speaking, sorry, we’ve completed the program.
The Main Conference
As always, the main conference will feature the world’s most enterprising journalists offering you a smorgasbord of expert panels, hands-on workshops, roundtables, discussions, and lightning talks. We’re highlighting the latest in digital surveillance and online sleuthing, cross-border collaboration, and exiled media tips and tools. This year, you’ll find special tracks on climate change, the threat to democracy, war crimes, corruption and kleptocracy, and survival strategies — along with the latest on media law, dealing with stress and burnout, and security clinics where you can get your gear checked for spyware. We’ll be hosting top podcast producers and documentary directors. You’ll find experts on sensors, satellites, and undercover reporting. Plus sessions on Indigenous issues, femicide, and rewriting history.
Data Journalism
In GIJC tradition, data plays a central role in our conferences. We’ll have leading data journalists offering more than 40 sessions on using AI, the best visualization software, analyzing social media, doing big data projects, basic coding, and a review of best data journalism projects over the past two years. Hands-on training will include Excel and Google sheets, database managers and SQL, building your own database, web scraping, mapping, social network analysis, intros to R and Python, and open source reporting techniques.
Academic Track
We’re also planning a dozen sessions in our academic track, with a focus on best teaching practices, discussions of ethics and objectivity, and the presentation of juried papers on investigative and data journalism. Among the proposed papers: the challenges of investigative reporting in the Global South, analysis of transnational investigative journalism, the intersection of fact checking and investigative reporting, effective uses of big data analysis, best practices in data visualization, and adapting AI to investigative reporting.
Networking
And then there’s the networking. Ask a journalist who’s been to a GIJC about their favorite part, and they’re likely to say it’s the people — those chance encounters in the hallways, at the elevators, in the bars. Imagine what it’s like to have 2,000 journalists from 100 countries brainstorming about how to get data, documents, and the truth. That’s the GIJC. We’ve included in the program a record number of networking sessions — by language, region and topic — to collaborate and brainstorm in a relaxed setting.

What about public transportation from the airport to your hotel?
Do I need a visa to enter Sweden?
Requirements for visitors’ visas differ from country to country. Be sure to review whether you need a visa to enter Sweden. If your country is not listed as a visa exempt country, you should make inquiries at your nearest Swedish embassy or consulate — and allow plenty of time to apply and get your visa. Here is the official website of the Swedish embassies and consulates.
What is the currency used in Sweden?
Sweden’s currency is the krona (SEK). Sweden is widely regarded as the most cashless society on the planet. Most terminals in stores support paying with contactless cards. Major credit cards (some restrictions may apply to American Express) are widely accepted throughout Sweden at banks, hotels, stores, restaurants, taxis, car rental companies, and for air, ship and rail tickets. Read more about currency here.
What does it mean that Sweden is a cashless society?
Sweden is among the most cashless societies in the world and all major credit cards are widely accepted. It’s very important to keep in mind that not all shops accept cash as payment anymore and by now a lot of places are completely cash-free (this applies, for example, to all facilities at the Gothia Tower hotel, including its restaurants).
Sweden’s currency is the Swedish krona (SEK), and you cannot pay using euro (€) or other currencies in cash. If you need to exchange money, you will find currency exchange offices such as Forex or Ria in Gothenburg. You’ll also find ATMs and currency exchange operators at Gothenburg Airport.
If you prefer or need to use cash, you can get it with your Visa, MasterCard, Maestro, or Cirrus card at any ATM marked “Bankomat” or “Uttagsautomat.” You will find ATMs at the Gothenburg Airport, as well as all around the city.
GIJN has compiled a list of establishments that accept cash near the venue, it is a work in progress and we will keep updating it. Please plan in advance, especially if you don’t own a credit or debit card.
Here you’ll find detailed information about currency, credit cards and money in Sweden.

How do I get from my hotel to the conference sites?
Welcome to Gothenburg!
We have put together all the essential information on how to get around and find the congress sites (Lindholmen for pre-conference day on the 19 of September, and Gothia Towers for the main conference on 20-22 of September).
The most convenient way to travel around Gothenburg is to download the app “Västtraffik To Go”- here you can easily find the fastest route to your desired destination. The app also serves as the most convenient way to buy your bus/train/ferry/tram ticket, although only if you possess a credit or debit card. If you need to buy your ticket with cash, the easiest way is to find the local convenience store “Pressbyrån”. Pressbyrån is often located in the main junction points in connection with stations and stops. If there are any changes in traffic due to infrastructure work, the app will provide you with an alternative route.
The following information will explain how you, in the most convenient way, can get from your hotel to the different congress sites. The times given below estimate the time for travel by tram, bus or ferry. Therefore, make sure to plan for possible walks and waiting times when changing lines.
