For this new project, we must create an infographic based around a specific world-related subject. Essentially, it could be anything. I have a few ideas already that I want to begin jotting down in the form of a mind map.
The brief is as follows:
With a focus on raw data, facts and figures, your second project for this module is to create an infographic/data visualisation focussing on a subject specific to the world around us.
Directions to take could include:
• Births and deaths in world – past and/or present
• Population figures specific to country
• Population in last 50, 100, 200 years
• By religion
• By environment
• Climate change
• Disease / Illness
Mind Map
Out of all these ideas, I’m really drawn towards producing an infographic on something to do with women’s issues in the current world, as I feel it is very relevant at this time and something I can relate to and be passionate about.
The following are issues relating to women that I could focus my research on:
- Abortion
- Birth control and Pregnancy
- Body image
- Cultural expectations and practices
- Discrimination
- Eating disorders
- Education
- Feminism
- Gay pride
- Female genital mutilation
- Health
- Marriage and Divorce
- Media portrayals
- Menstruation and Menopause
- Parenting
- Prostitution
- LGBT
- Sex and Sexuality
- Sports
- Stereotypes
- Substance abuse
- Violence and Rape
- Work
