Data visualization competition open

Visual journalists are invited to create a data visualization for this contest.

The United Nation’s Human Development Report Office (HDRO) is organizing a data visualization competition based on its own human development data.

Participants are encouraged to examine the following questions: How can the human development level of a country be best understood in one snapshot? How might we best compare the indicators for different countries? How can you show the strengths of the different components that make up the indices for different countries and how might that impact policy in a country? How can inequalities be best illustrated and how might this impact the level of human development?

The finalists will be invited to the Cartagena Data Fest April 20 to 22 in Colombia.

The submission deadline is March 20.
