  • GROW AND INNOVATE – self-help for news organizations in these challenging times.
  • SCHOLARLY INSIGHTS – presentations on current research, COVID-fueled innovations, and more.

The Kočner Library project contains thousands of documents relating to Slovak businessman Marián Kočner, who was tried for allegedly ordering the assassination of investigative reporter Ján Kuciak and his fiancée, Martina Kušnírová. The library is available to Slovak journalists for pursuing stories relating to Kočner, who has been accused of links to organized crime. How did this project start? How do you organize such a huge task? What has been accomplished, and what is next? Pavla Holcová of OCCRP and investigace.cz will talk about the details of this award-winning project.
