INNOVATIVE MEDIA
Kloop
Investigative Media, Kyrgyzstan
The journalists at Kloop have published outstanding investigative and data work over the past ten years despite being constantly targeted by one of the most corrupt and repressive governments in the world. “I would have killed her anyway” is a great example of advanced data journalism skills employed to investigate and expose one of the most heinous crimes in Kyrgyzstan: Femicide. Kloop shows the extent of the problem and its root causes while being very honest with the public about the limited amount of data that they had access to. This is hard work journalism that will inspire change.
