The Role of Evidence in Solutions Journalism
Mathematica’s J.B. Wogan will interview Tina Rosenberg of the Solutions Journalism Network about how researchers who evaluate policies and programs can contribute to evidence-based reporting about solutions.
On Tuesday, May 2, 2023, at 2 p.m. ET, join J.B. Wogan, host of Mathematica’s On the Evidence podcast, for a Q&A on LinkedIn Live with Tina Rosenberg about the role of data and other evidence in supporting solutions journalism.
In 2013, Rosenberg co-founded the Solutions Journalism Network, an independent nonprofit that advocates for an evidence-based mode of reporting on responses to social problems. The network challenges journalists to look for data or qualitative results that show whether a solution they’re covering is effective. The conversation will explore what solutions journalism is and how researchers who evaluate policies and programs can contribute to evidence-based reporting about solutions.
From 2010 through 2021, Rosenberg co-authored the Fixes column for The New York Times. She is also the author of three books, including Join the Club, which shows how positive peer pressure can change people’s behavior and solve seemingly intractable social quandaries. Her earlier book, The Haunted Land: Facing Europe's Ghosts After Communism, won the Pulitzer Prize for General Non-Fiction and the National Book Award for Nonfiction.
Audiences can submit questions for Rosenberg during the event through LinkedIn Live or in advance by emailing info@mathematica-mpr.com.
