Vorágine is a native, diverse and independent digital media (it does not respond to economic or political interests in order to guarantee citizens' fundamental right to information), which publishes in-depth works related to the violation and protection of human rights, environmental problems, the questioning of any power and the denunciation of corruption in Colombia. It relies on different illustration styles to enhance the stories, but it also builds stories in other formats such as video and podcast.
