Use your lunch break to come and chat with our experts in one of the Dataharvest "cafes"!
Here you can ask experts' advice on security, fundraising or drafting a budget, obtaining documents from the EU (or investigating the EU in general), or help in coding. You’ll find these “cafes” in the main lobby area (Mediaforum, where coffee breaks and lunches take place on the ground floor). To locate the cafes, just look for for roll-ups with the corresponding name!
Security cafeCome to the security cafe to assess your digital hygiene habits! Our privacy enthusiasts will assess them, and advise you on how you can improve your privacy/security. Also, if you have a specific question about a security issue you've encountered during your investigation or need a risk assessment, come by too!

Finance & Fundraising cafeDo you want to learn how to translate your ideas into budgets, explore different financial scenarios, draft budgets for grant applications, improve your financial reporting, or learn where to start fundraising for your new project? Join the finance and fundraising cafe to ask anything you’ve always wanted to know about journalism finance—but never dared to ask.
