PTCIJ has pioneered several transformative initiatives, such as UDEME, an online platform that provides information on budget implementation and procurement practices in Nigeria.

PTCIJ has collaborated with six newsrooms to advance press freedom and support journalists exposing wrongdoings.

‘The Grant will hopefully help us do two broad things; effectively map the sub-regional landscape with respect to the media freedom ecology, the interface of the digital migration mechanism and press freedom as well as how to construct a governance zone of accountability and development in West Africa by addressing the misinformation challenge to information production, exchange and distribution.

‘At Luminate, we believe in the power of investigative journalism to fight mis- and disinformation. We’ll continue to encourage institutions and individuals who defend a vibrant, free press that uncovers the truth and holds power to account,’ said Abdul Noormohamed, Luminate Africa Director. Luminate is a global philanthropic organisation focused on empowering people and institutions to work together to build just and fair societies. Luminate funds and supports innovative and courageous organisations and entrepreneurs worldwide by advocating for the policies and actions that will help people participate in and shape the issues affecting their societies.
