Mona Chalabi: Humanizing Data

Cancelled
Numbers tell stories, and Pulitzer-Prize winning data journalist Mona Chalabi’s skill lies in telling them in ways that get people talking. Through illustration, words, and sound, Chalabi makes the intangible tangible – like in March 2024’s Guardian piece, ‘The Story of Gaza’s Destruction in 100 Lives’. With Heather Parry, Chalabi talks about how, lately, she’s turned her grief for Palestine into work that aims to spread awareness, and the tensions that comes with responsibility.
