Journalists and citizens often face similar problems when conducting research: Authorities stonewall, companies seal themselves off. In this session, we will show you how you can still get the pearl of information you need. We will discuss freedom of information rights that oblige authorities to provide information, as well as investigative research into the Tesla plant in Grünheide, which revealed environmental pollution and industrial accidents.
