International Journalism Festival, Perugia, day 6! Another half-day-tour which turned into a full-day-tour. Not as amazing as yesterday, but eh. We visited a waterfall (largest in Europe!) and an old Roman village that people have been digging out.
After coming back to Perugia, I saw another talk (”Will investigative journalism save the world? (And journalism?)” - as in so many panels, they didn’t answer the question. Still interesting.) (The more I learn about Investigative Journalism the more of a fan I become.) and then had my last Perugia pizza slice with a view over Umbria, while having great conversations with Jacqui and Stefan and Stijn. To then continue these conversations first in a bar and then, by then including Zara, in “Rosetta”, which turned out to be the best restaurant in Perugia I’ve tried so far. Rosemary ice cream, yummy.
Input? 6
Output? 1
Learnings?
On my quest of understanding goals in Journalism, I should look into the Theory of Change and KPI metrics. Also, more Jonathan Stray. (Thanks, Stijn!)
I should have some “one output piece a week” challenge, to not fall into the trap of not DOING anything because I don’t have a goal yet.
Questions?
Every field can be improved, as Polygraph demonstrates. What is a data vis that I could do about a field that a) interests me and b) could be improved? In which ways? I should do a list.
