Four years ago we started investigating the corruption that power conceals in order to make relevant information available to citizens. Since 2015, when Convoca.pe emerged in Peru, we have been investigating the Lava Jato case (Operation Car Wash) with rigor, independence, freedom and in a collaborative manner with journalists from different countries in Latin American. It has not been easy. Investigating corruption is risky, costly, and complex. This is why we invite you to join our crowdfunding campaign so you can support our work and hence investigative journalism.

We even joined forces with journalists from Latin America and Africa to create '‘Investiga Lava Jato’, a collaborative network that investigates the Operation Car Wash in different countries. Our stories have contributed to the investigations being carried out by authorities. These investigations involve public officials, businessmen, and others people involved in corrupt practices.
