Data complexity can often obscure our main findings or hinder a true understanding of impact. How do we make information more accessible to different audiences? Often this is done by displaying data and information visually. If not done carefully, however, our efforts can lead to confusion.
The ability to create impactful data visualizations, such as graphs or maps, has become a core skill for analysts, researchers and managers in the United Nations system. Whether we capture disparate data points or research findings in meaningful and impactful, visual stories often means the difference between our stakeholders making, or not making, evidence-based decisions.
