Omaya Sosa is the founding co-director of Puerto Rico’s Centro de Periodismo Investigativo (CPI or, in English, Center for Investigative Journalism). With more than 20 years of experience not only working in Puerto Rico, but also organizing and collaborating with media outlets from other Caribbean islands, she has witnessed many things, including her colleagues receiving threats and even denials of their residence visas after exposing corrupt individuals. Last November, she received an award at COLPIN, the most prestigious conference of investigative journalists in Latin America, for her work as an editor on the series Paradise Lost. This interview, which was conducted in Spanish, is part of GIJN’s ongoing series talking with leading investigative journalists around the world.
