How data can be used for awareness-raising and information purposes ?

Join a hands on workshop with Julia Janicki, a specialist in data journalism and data storytelling who tackles powerful issues through powerful visualizations. Create your own !

In this workshop, you will be able to learn how she creates data visualisations and data-driven stories. Julia Janicki will go over her process in detail by using key examples taken from her work. You will follow her in all the steps of the process: setting goals, finding and cleaning data, exploration and creation, polishing and publishing. You will receive a cleaned dataset, and in groups of 3-4, you will be able to take the dataset and use different tools to create a graphic with an angle of your choice. You will share the result and can expect feedback from Julia Janicki. 

Would you like to chat over a drink after the conference? An aperitif will be offered by the museum !
