The Web We Weave is an interactive journey through the tangled world of kleptocracy in Africa. From Nigeria to Mali, this digital archive connects the dots between stolen wealth, shadowy deals, and the global networks that keep corruption alive. Each story is a thread in a larger fabric of corruption.
Powered by ZAM Magazine, the project exposes how power, money, and silence flow across borders – revealing that kleptocracy isn’t just a local problem, but part of a global system. Dive in, follow the threads, and explore how these hidden connections shape the world we live in.
At the heart of the project is the motif of weaving. Each story is a thread that reveals the larger fabric of corruption across Africa and beyond when woven together. By choosing a pattern and following its threads, you help uncover how stolen wealth and shadow networks are bound together. As you explore, you create your own tapestry, tracing the interconnections that shape the world we live in.
Simply select a pattern or theme and explore the tapestry.
