UNCOVERED Conference 2026

UNCOVERED is where Europe’s investigative journalism community comes together, journalists, editors, media experts, and advocates from across the continent and beyond. Whether you are a serial UNCOVERED goer or joining us for the first time, here is a taste of what to expect this year:

  • Honest conversations on journalist safety, mental health, media freedom, and the pressing challenges facing the investigative journalism community today.
  • Cross-Border Snapshots sessions, where IJ4EU grantees take the floor to share the lessons, challenges, and questions from their investigations, peer to peer.
  • Open mic moments to share insights, practical knowledge, and invite peers to collaborate on future projects.
  • A warm, welcoming community of like-minded journalists, and quite possibly, your next cross-border collaborator.
  • And of course, the IJ4EU Impact Award Ceremony, honouring the most impactful cross-border investigations of 2025.

17–18 September 2026, Goethe-Institut Budapest, Hungary
