IDL-Reporteros is an online newspaper based in Lima, Peru that specializes in investigative journalism against corruption in Peru and to promote transparency with the nation.[1][2] Since its founding, the newspaper has initiated over 500 investigations throughout Peru.[1]

History

The newspaper was founded in October 2009 by veteran reporter Gustavo Gorriti, initially with only two reporters.[1][2] One of the first main investigations occurred in February 2010, with the report involving the purchase of armoured personnel carrier by the Peruvian Armed Forces at a highly inflated price later being spread through national media outlets.[2]

Recognition

IDL-Reporteros is a member of the Global Investigative Journalism Network,[1] has been supported by the Open Society Foundations[2] and was recognized as an Ashoka Changemaker as part of the Ashoka Fellows project.[3] Human rights organizations in Venezuela, including PROVEA and Transparency Venezuela, have expressed support and collaborated with the newspaper.[4]
