We’re Will FitzGibbon, Scilla Alecci, Emilia Diaz-Struck and Amy Wilson-Chapman from ICIJ - the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists -who worked on the Paradise Papers investigation!
Hopefully you’ve heard of our latest project, the Paradise Papers, which was an investigation that explored 13.4 million leaked files from a combination of offshore service providers. We worked with more than 380 journalists on the project and stories are still being published across the globe. Our reporting revealed the interest and activities of more than 120 politicians and world leaders, including Queen Elizabeth II and 13 allies of U.S. President Donald Trump. We also exposed the latest tax maneuvers of some of the world’s largest corporations - such as Apple and Nike.
There will be a few of us answering your questions! While we’re all based in Washington, D.C. we all hail from different countries. We’ve listed Amy here, but she’s pretty new to the team so will be the least active of us all!
Will FitzGibbon - Australian - is an investigative reporter and our Africa coordinator. He also speaks French!
Emilia Diaz-Struck - Venezuelan - is our lead researcher. She also speaks Spanish and German!
Scilla Alecci - Italian - is also an investigative reporter and our Asia coordinator. She speaks Italian and Japanese!
Amy Wilson-Chapman - Australian - is ICIJ’s community engagement editor. She only speaks English. Proof
We’re planning to answer your questions until 3pmand then will take a break… and if we can we’ll keep answering your queries!
While we will try our best to answer all your questions, we often get asked very specific questions relating to our research and what we found in our data. We’d love to answer all of these questions, ICIJ is a small team and we just couldn’t search the data for every single person from every country in the world! So don’t take it personally. We make a lot of our data available for searching - so that we can give you the power to find out what people in your home countries are up to.
We’re super excited to be here! :)
Amy, Scilla, Will, and Emi.
