Ecuador: ciberperiodismo de investigación y agenda de la cooperación internacional.

In Ecuador, digital journalism research platforms have emerged due to the support of international cooperation and its lines of interest, mainly because during the 2007-2017 decade, information in traditional media had direct control from the State, which is why the journalistic investigation units saw their work diminished and even died out. Despite having a trained human resource, the journalistic companies did not bet more for the investigation, for which the journalists transferred their work to thematic specialized digital spaces, and which are financed by international cooperation and its main lines of work: fight against corruption, organized crime and trafficking in persons; which has made that the journalistic investigation has left the traditional media and develops in these spaces of specialized cyberjournalism, where the agenda does not arise from a near need but from a global vision or from an external requirement, but that affects in the social reality of the country. The agenda setting of Plan V (www.planv.com.ec), Código Vidrio (www.codigovidrio.com) and Mil hojas (www.milhojas.is) will be analyzed to establish its relationship with the agenda of international donors.
