We're thrilled and honoured to have 6 projects — which we've collaborated on with #humanrights orgs from Kenya, Ethiopia, Uganda, Somalia, Syria and the UK — longlisted at this year's #iibawards. These projects push the creative boundaries of what you can do with #data Thread 1/7

Still buzzing from our week in Stockholm with Civil Rights Defenders for #defendersdays running the data4change Data Jam, a 2-hour session with Michael Brenner that gets participants discovering stories in scatter plots. Our first since the pandemic & can't wait to do it again!
