✨ The Winner of our 2025 Innovation Award: "Under Surveillance. How Location Data Jeopardizes German Security", by Katharina Brunner, Rebecca Ciesielski, Ingo Dachwitz, Sebastian M., and Maximilian Zierer.

In this investigation, a team of reporters analysed 3.6 billion location data points that originated from millions of people’s smartphones in Germany, which data brokers offer on online marketplaces. The movement profiles reveal daily routines, places of residence, and commuting routes of many people in Germany, including thousands of individuals who presumably work for German or foreign intelligence services.

✨ The Runner-Up of our 2025 Innovation Award: "Road to Redemption: How Israel’s War Against Hamas Turned Into a Springboard for Jewish Settlement in Gaza" by Yarden Michaeli, Avi Scharf, Idit Frenkel, Asi Oren, and Uri Talshir.

This piece uses AI and satellite imagery to reveal an ongoing de facto occupation of more than a quarter of the Gaza Strip, including the building of army bases, the paving of roads, and the clearing of Palestinians from those areas by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF).

✨ The Runner-Up of our 2025 Distinguished Reporting Award: "René Damgaard Is Saying a Final Goodbye to Life and to His Niece", by Line Vaaben.

For this story, Line Vaaben spent two weeks around the clock in a palliative care ward at a Danish Hospital with photographer Jacob Ehrbahn to document what plays out in the days and hours before and after death. The article describes the emotions, choices, and realisations that families, doctors, and nurses have to take at the end of life.

✨ The Winner of our 2025 Distinguished Reporting Award: "Did Something Happen to Mom When She Was Young?" by Jessica Bateman.

This piece shines a light on a forgotten part of 20th century history: the politically motivated adoptions of Greek children after the country’s brutal civil war. The project sets out in great detail how the majority of these black market adoptions were likely carried out and the mechanics of what one historian has termed “forced consent”.
