Deadline: September 1st, 2022
The Interactive Initiative for Social Impact (Dataphyte) invites applications from grassroot change agents (Journalists, Civil Society actors, Community Based actors) in Nigeria’s South West zone (Lagos, Oyo, Ogun, Osun, Ondo, Ekiti ) for an in-person training on Driving Subnational Transparency and Accountability with Data which will hold in Abuja on Thursday, September 15th and Friday, September 16th, 2022.
Dataphyte Nigeria Limited, publisher of Dataphyte is a media, research and data analytics organisation with the mission to deploy data tools and technology for socio-economic development of Nigeria. Dataphyte is the for-profit, research and development program of The Interactive Initiative for Social Impact (The Interactive).
Dataphyte was born out of a need to fill the lacuna in data accessibility, especially in formats that support governance, policy analysis, and accountability work in Nigeria. Without doubt, policy and development planning is currently based on outdated datasets and often extrapolated estimates. As an intervention, Dataphyte was launched to provide the accountability and policy sectors with cleaner, analysed, easily-accessible and useable data to drive democracy and development in Nigeria.
