|Chief Data Officer, Code for Africa
Jacopo Ottaviani is an award-winning computer scientist and data expert who has shaped Code for Africa’s data team and designed programmes supported by the World Bank, Google News Initiative, GIZ and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, spearheading work in countries like Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa, Uganda and Senegal.
Jacopo's most recent work combines satellite data with drone imagery and forensic data to produce strategic data aggregations and visualisations that address social issues in Africa such as urban inequality, immigration, land rights, water security, deforestation and sustainable development goals.
Jacopo’s mix of technical skills, as a computer scientist and data journalist, has resulted in a series of projects published by, among others, Thomson Reuters Foundation (UK), Der Spiegel (Germany), El País (Spain), Al Jazeera International (global), De Correspondent (Netherlands) and Internazionale (Italy).
