NEW PODCAST!: Eva Constantaras is a data journalist with Internews and Lighthouse Reports who works around the world to establish data journalism units to tell public interest stories. She has worked with data journalists in Afghanistan, Myanmar and many other places around the world where numbers can make a difference.

Eva chats on the podcast about data journalism in failing states and her process to help reporters tell those hidden stories. 

Read Eva’s chapter for the new version of the Data Journalism Handbook, on data journalism and marginalised communities.

The music this week is based on a dataset of numbers of dams that was used as part of this story from Myanmar, and made with TwoTone.
