The practice of data journalism has become popular as we are becoming more familiar with the presence of data as well as the development of technology. Thus, improving data literacy among journalists has become essential. The creation of Data and Computational Journalism Conference and Workshop Indonesia (DCJ-CI) 2022 aims to enhance the data skills of journalists nationwide by presenting a series of hands-on workshops, talk shows, seminars, and networking sessions to journalists, journalism students and lecturers, as well as data enthusiasts in Indonesia. This event was attended by hundreds of participants throughout the country and joined by speakers and experts from countries like U.S., England, India, Singapore, Nepal, and Indonesia. DCJ-CI resulted in data journalism and computational products published in several media in Indonesia. ]]>
