Data Storytelling Workshop (2-days, in-person)

Tell data-driven stories that move people.

Ever wished you could inspire people and change minds with data? Our workshops share the storytelling techniques we use to help your data make a difference.

We’ve been telling data stories for a while now, collaborating with causes to transform their insights into narratives that stick. But we want to do more.

All good things must be shared. We want to empower the next generation of changemakers and storytellers through our bootcamps. Our workshop covers all of the principles, techniques, and tools that we use daily—good stuff only!
