OCCRP

OCCRP (Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project) is one of the largest investigative journalism organizations in the world, headquartered in Amsterdam with staff across six continents. Founded in 2006 by veteran investigative journalists Paul Radu and Drew Sullivan, the organization operates as a nonprofit, mission-driven newsroom that partners with other media outlets to publish stories that lead to real-world action.

The organization focuses on exposing organized crime and corruption worldwide through collaborative cross-border investigations. OCCRP develops and provides innovative technology tools for investigative journalists, including Aleph Pro, an investigative data platform that helps reporters follow the money through vast archives of government records and databases. Their work has resulted in significant real-world impact, including the recovery of billions of dollars in embezzled funds and the prosecution of criminals involved in transnational corruption.

Beyond their investigative work, OCCRP's media development arm helps investigative outlets around the world succeed and serve the public. The organization sets high professional standards for investigative journalism and operates within an international network of independent media centers and journalists, reinventing how investigative journalism is practiced globally.
