Utami Diah Kusumawati is a former lecturer at Multimedia Nusantara University. Currently she is undertaking PhD study at RMIT, where she does teach.
Although the study deals with data journalism, its primary focus is a comparative analysis of data journalism practices within mainstream media—specifically in Australia and Indonesia. What does this entail?

This is especially relevant in today's digital era, characterized by the rise of "citizen journalism." In her interview with SBS Indonesian, Utami Diah Kusumawati explores these topics and other related issues.
