Waves of Collaboration: Cross-Border Environmental Investigative Journalism | AMWAJ

Описание: On the occasion of the Day of the Mediterranean 2025, AMWAJ’s Tabadul series spotlighted the power of independent, cross-border environmental journalism in fostering regional understanding, accountability, and collaboration.

The speakers:
Alev Karakartal, Turkey
Anastasia Karadimitri, Greece
Burak Altınok, Turkey
Sofia Turati, Italy

Moderator: Claudia Rodríguez, Communication Officer at REVOLVE

We were excited to see how, through the AMWAJ community, numerous collaborations emerge. One of these was a cross-border investigation initiated by four journalists on “The Impact of Sea Snot in the Marmara Sea, Greece, and Italian Coast,” which was supported editorially by AMWAJ and financially by Journalismfund Europe.

This initiative illustrated how AMWAJ catalysed journalists and researchers to connect, co-create, and amplify Mediterranean environmental stories that transcended borders.
