WHEN: Saturday, March 29th, 10am-2pm

WHAT: Mapping Your Local Environment (MYLE) is an introductory workshop that addresses inequitable data representation by training participants in GIS to map local environmental justice concerns. Local journalists, accompanied by environmental justice organizers and other interested community members, will learn to identify and challenge biases by developing critical skills to find, analyze and present relevant local data, combining qualitative and quantitative insights to build powerful narratives.

This workshop is presented by Detroit Documenters, Planet Detroit, and Detroit Data in partnership with Rooted Futures Lab and Urban Data Response.
