Center for Collaborative Investigative Journalism 

The organization won for their work funding and supporting journalists across the globe and helping find audiences through relationships with news outlets in countries like South Africa, Ghana, Malawi, Nigeria, Mali and the U.S. Our judges commend CCIJ for connecting this community of international journalists with bigger platforms and tools to make their work more powerful while expanding its own newsletter audience and boosting fundraising.

Note: At the time, this award was given out as the Game-Changer Award, which is now the INNovator Award.
