Awards
CIN has won a number of awards including the 2007 Online Journalism Award for investigative reporting at a small website for its work on food safety. In 2007 it also won the BiH Transparency International award for journalism integrity. It won the Media Plaque for Excellence in Reporting in the 2007 Vecernji list awards.
CIN and its OCCRP partners along with SCOOP won the first Global Shining Light Award in 2006 for reporting under duress for its stories on energy traders. CIN, along with its partners in Romania, Bulgaria and Albania showed that while energy traders were getting sweetheart deals from the government and making tens of millions of dollars and adding very little to the economy, pensioners and the working poor were barely able to pay their energy bills and were often living in darkness. In 2009, CIN was part of a team led by the International Consortium of Investigative Reporters that won both the Overseas Press Club Award and the Tom Renner Award for crime reporting from Investigative Reporters and Editors for their work on tobacco smuggling.
CIN's OCCRP partners include the Rise Project in Romania, the Center for Investigative Reporting in Serbia, MANS in Montenegro, Investigative Journalists of Armenia (HETQ) and others.
