Recently, Jessica traveled up to Cambridge to speak at MIT’s Open Doc Lab (one of our partners on Immerse), where she hosted a demo of the Impact Pack. Orders for the deck are now flying out the door, with professors, journalists and producers all using them for planning, teaching and brainstorming.

She also spoke at the Center for Effective Philanthropy‘s annual conference, where she gave an overview of Media Impact Funders’ Media Grants Data Map, a database and data visualization tool that tracks media funders, grants, and grant recipients worldwide.

Next, she hit New York, where she worked with the Solutions Journalism Network to demonstrate how the cards can be used to strategize reporting projects. And today, she’s in New Jersey, participating in the Collaborative Journalism Summit.
