In the previous episode, our host, Winston Mwale, spoke to Lesotho-based investigative journalist, Pascalinah Khabi, who, together with Sechaba Mokhethi, recently did a great story titled “water, water everywhere…but not a drop to drink”.

Apart from the great pictures that accompanied it, the story also had great data visualizations that were done by Yuxi Wang, a freelancing writer, and data journalist.

In this episode, Winston talks to Yuxi about her for passion for data storytelling, visualization, and her recent data visualizations for the story “Waterpreneurs”, which talks about government’s failure to deliver clean water to islanders” in Nigeria.

What was Yuxi’s major role in the story? In her opinion, what was so unique with this particular story, as far as data visualization was concerned?
