Brazilian Association of Investigative Journalism

In collaboration with the data agency Fiquem Sabendo, Abraji created a new free online workshop program in August 2023 to train media professionals in the use of the Law on Access to Information (LAI). It is an adaptation of the LAI nas Redações course, promoted in 2021, which introduced tools for obtaining public transparency data through the LAI.

The program’s main goal is to help communicators and journalists involved in hyperlocal initiatives to report using data obtained through the law. Abraji and Fiquem Sabendo believe that using this resource to cover important issues in these communicators' territories is a way to strengthen journalism and transparency at a local level.
