Relevant issues may include, but are not limited to: corruption, fraud, cyber-crime, drug trafficking, human trafficking (women, children, men, organs), environmental crimes, money laundering, smuggling, energy policies, sport match-fixing or illicit calls for tenders.

Participants can propose projects worldwide. Each project must involve at least two journalists from different countries.
