The Story of Datastory
Every person has a desire to learn. We just need to find that spark. ✨
We want everyone to have access to rich and pedagogical visualizations of the world’s most pressing issues. At the same time, governments and organizations need user-centered technology to make sense of data. Meet Datastory Tech and Datastory.
Datastory
Datastory.org is our free knowledge platform where we co-create tools together with researchers and data journalists. Using visualization, storytelling and open data, we democratize knowledge so that everyone can better navigate the complexities of the 21st century – using the best available data.
Our Leadership Team
We are a group of data scientists, journalists, designers and web developers from different countries and backgrounds. Our desire and shared goal is to make knowledge accessible to people all around the world.
