Investigative Journalism and Web3: Early explorations in the metaverse and virtual worlds

 Published On Apr 9, 2023

Web3 platforms offer a universe of new opportunities to expand how journalism stories are told and delivered. At CCIJ we have begun exploring these tools to develop the language and understanding of what can be done, what shouldn’t be done and how big we can dream.

This “Ask Me Anything” (AMA) session includes an introduction of our virtual space. Attendees were able ask about our experience with translating our investigative stories to this innovative virtual space. We shared our insights into the current challenges, possibilities, limitations of what some Web3 platforms can present for journalists.

As one of the first, if not only, global media brands to embrace regularly building “metaverse” type immersive experiences, CCIJ is excited to share what we’ve encountered and learned through our first few projects, and what it means for the practice of ethical, impactful, relevant and innovative journalism.
