Dataharvest 2025 - the European Investigative Journalism Conference

How do you track down a hidden asset or find someone who doesn't want to be found, starting with almost no information? This session walks through real examples where investigative journalists needed support tackling these kinds of challenges. Rather than focusing on one specific method, we'll look at how researchers approach complex problems creatively when information is limited and subjects are trying to stay hidden. The goal is to share practical ways of thinking through obstacles and to inspire new ideas for your own investigations.
