🚨🌳 Overriding Private Interests Or Protecting Biodiversity?

📰 In Southern Italy, Porsche sought to clear 200 hectares of protected forest to expand its test track — invoking EU rules meant to safeguard human health and public safety. The catch? The project was overwhelmingly private.

The Bosco d'Arneo, a Natura 2000 site in one of the Mediterranean's most desertification-hit regions, narrowly avoided destruction. Local authorities suspended the controversial ruling after the European Commission stepped in — but the agreement was never formally cancelled.

This is what happens when the language of the common good is stretched to serve corporate interests — and why communities on the ground matter. 🇪🇺🌿

​🎯 Se la prima giornata ci ha insegnato a leggere i dati, la seconda sessione del workshop di Fair Funds, Fair Future ci ha portati sul campo, a contatto con il giornalismo d'inchiesta locale.

Con Luciano Manna abbiamo scoperto i retroscena dei suoi VeraLeaks e le sfide di chi trasforma i dati in denunce pubbliche. Quindi chi partecipava è passato all'azione, sviluppando piste investigative per monitorare i fondi UE per la transizione ecologica.

Il workshop a Taranto è finito, ma ora si fa sul serio: chi ha partecipato avrà la possibilità di presentare un pitch per ricevere un grant e un percorso di mentoring!

___

​🇬🇧 🎯 After data, Day 2 of the Fair Funds, Fair Future workshop brought us into the field of local investigative journalism.

With Luciano Manna, we uncovered the reality behind VeraLeaks and the challenges of turning data into public-interest exposes. Participants then took action, developing investigative leads to track EU funds for the green transition.

The Taranto workshop is over, but the real work begins now: who took part in the workshop can now pitch and investigation and could win a grant and professional mentoring!

🚨 Dream Homes or Empty Plots: Behind Bosnia’s Land Sales to Gulf Buyers

📰 Lush valleys. Quiet villages. The promise of a villa whose value will multiply for years to come. That's the pitch being made to buyers from Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and across the Gulf. 🏡

The investigation found a very different story on the ground — agricultural and forest land stripped of trees, divided into plots, and sold as "construction land" to buyers thousands of miles away.

This isn't a handful of rogue deals. It appears to be a systematic business model — and the locals who once owned that land are watching it disappear.

The programme is designed to foster expert-reviewed journalism, supporting collaborations between freelance journalists and media-organisations eager to investigate issues (and solutions) affecting Europe.

A project can also have a broader international angle, uncovering complex connections in a globalised world. There are no restrictions on the subject. The only condition is that 80% of the budget goes to applicants based in the EU.

👉 Find out more about the eligibility criteria for such projects: https://www.journalismfund.eu/european-cross-border-grants

Sette anni dopo la storica manifestazione di Basta Veleni, siamo tornati a Brescia.
Allora migliaia di persone scesero in piazza per chiedere bonifiche certe da PCB e diossine, in una città contaminata per un secolo dai veleni prodotti dalla Caffaro.

Il nostro racconto riparte da qui: dal luogo in cui quella contaminazione ha avuto origine.

La storia della Caffaro non è rimasta dentro i cancelli della fabbrica. Per decenni la contaminazione ha attraversato suoli, quartieri, aree agricole, giardini e parchi pubblici.

Il 21 marzo siamo tornati a Brescia, a Chiesanuova, dove è stato inaugurato l’ultimo parco pubblico bonificato.

Un passaggio atteso da anni, che racconta una conquista, ma lascia aperta una domanda: che cosa significa davvero restituire un territorio alla sua comunità?

A raccontarlo ci sono le voci di chi questa storia l’ha denunciata, studiata e attraversata per anni e quelle delle istituzioni che oggi hanno il compito di portare avanti il percorso di bonifica e restituzione alla città.

Su youtube e su https://nozonesacrificio.cittadinireattivi.it/storia/la-primavera-di-brescia/ è online la nuova video-inchiesta di @rosybattaglia

🔍 Per difendere un territorio devi saper leggere i dati e usare la tecnologia. A Taranto, gli spazi di Cinerapsodi e Radio Vera hanno ospitato il workshop intensivo di Fair Funds, Fair Future, progetto di Marea Media, REVOLVE e MIRA (con il supporto di Journalismfund Europe) per monitorare i fondi UE per la transizione ecologica.

​Nella prima sessione, Walter Meloni (MIRA Network) ha mostrato come analizzare i dati del Just Transition Fund e verificare l'impatto reale delle risorse sulle comunità, insegnando a fare ricerca documentale e a pretendere trasparenza sui fondi pubblici.

​Siamo poi passati al monitoraggio ambientale con Giorgio Santoriello (CovaContro). Forte dell'esperienza contro l'estrattivismo in Basilicata, Giorgio ha spiegato come usare indagini satellitari e termocamere: strumenti chiave per raccogliere prove autonome e documentare l'impatto dei fossili su salute e territorio.

​We then moved to environmental monitoring with Giorgio Santoriello (CovaContro). Drawing on his anti-oil extraction experience in Basilicata, Giorgio explained how to use satellite tracking and thermal imaging: essential tools to gather independent evidence on the impact of fossil fuels on public health and the environment.

📅 Wednesday, May 20 | 16:00 CEST

Historic toxic landfills across Europe are not isolated incidents; they expose systemic regulatory failures and harm communities.

This webinar brings together journalists, policymakers, environmental organisations, and affected communities to discuss the findings of Watershed Investigations and Investigate Europe's toxic landfills investigation – what went wrong, who is still paying the price, and the challenges standing in the way of real change.

Speakers:

🧩EVENT TOMORROW: Join Stéphane Horel, Elisabetta Tola and Léopold Salzenstein for our session "How to save the planet (and its people) with nerds"

This event on May 19th 2-3pm CET is the wrap-up session for our Expert-reviewed Journalism webinar series. Sign up here: https://t.ly/aIe-z

🤝Do you have questions about how a team of journalists can optimally collaborate with subject-matter experts to deepen their investigative project?

🏹 Experts can help make sense of data, verify methodologies and ensure explanations of technical knowledge is accurate. Yet Scientists need reassurance that their reputations won't be compromised, whilst journalists must demonstrate expertise and preparation when engaging with expert partners.
Developing a collaboration requires building trust and ensuring editorial independence.

The speakers will share their experience, lessons and best practices to carry out expert-reviewed journalism.

Da un confronto nato nelle piazze di Taranto durante il dibattito sull’ex Ilva a una visione che intreccia rigenerazione urbana, servizi ecosistemici e transizione post-industriale: il progetto @tracce_tarantoprova a spostare il focus dal solo rifiuto di un modello in crisi alla costruzione concreta di alternative per il territorio.

La sfida oggi è trasformare ricerca, progettazione e partecipazione in strumenti reali di cambiamento: rigenerare spazi dismessi, creare nuove economie locali e accompagnare una transizione capace di tenere insieme ecologia, lavoro e comunità.

Questo articolo è stato co-prodotto con l’economista ambientale @gladys_spiliopoulos per conto di Tracce APS, nell’ambito del progetto “No Zone di Sacrificio”, sostenuto da @journalismfund
