Welcome back ICIJ reader!
A special note from us this week – we've added 18 new members to our global network of investigative reporters... so why not dedicate this email to them?
The ICIJ model is pretty unique. Our small in-house newsroom and data team works with reporters around the world. And that network just got larger. Today, we welcomed 18 new members – importantly we've added members in countries we previously didn't have them (Tunisia, Ghana, Nepal, Senegal, Malta, and Panama.)
We’re pretty proud of the team we work with – these reporters are among the best investigative reporters in their country. So here’s a quick overview. For more info, you can read the story.
Caelainn Barr, United Kingdom, is editor of the Data Projects team at The Guardian in London.
Jacob Borg, Malta is a reporter with the Times of Malta.
Joaquín Castellón, Spain, is investigations and data editor at LaSexta TV.
Xavier Counasse, Belgium, works as a journalist and coordinator of investigative journalism at the Belgian newspaper Le Soir.

Now meet another member, Monica Almeida from Ecuador, who was part of our Panama Papers team. (We are still celebrating the three-year anniversary, so get your tote bag here!) After their first stories were published, the Ecuadorian team were intimidated by the president and had to battle an earthquake. But that didn't stop their reporting. It's an amazing tale.
Until next week!
