Our lecturers and students
JMG's lecturers have extensive own experience of investigative journalism as well as the invited guest lecturers.
Many of those attending the programme are journalists, others have a different background. However, the desire to learn more in order to investigate and critically examine what is happening in our society and with power is something in common for JMG's students.
Many of the students have had their final projects in investigative journalism published in both Swedish and international media.
