About

DataTimes.eu is the European edition of DataTimes, the data journalism project of Kateřina Mahdalová and Michal Škop. We look at European questions through open data: elections, the rules that Brussels changes, and what those changes do to people, prices and markets.

We look for the facts and record them honestly. We don’t tint them, we don’t work for interest groups, and we are not afraid.

Data. Context. Clarity. Courage.
