The aim of this infographic is to show the areas that are faced with the highest levels of poverty, the efforts done to reduce poverty, and the comparison between the poor and the wealthy.
In this second draft that I've completed, I've added in the world map, as well as a short comparison between poverty and wealth at the bottom of the page.
In the timeline, I've decided to pit the timeline of poverty by region with the global campaigns aimed at reducing poverty. This would give us a better idea of the impact of the campaigns, and if the campaigns actually did make any significant impact on poverty.
There was not much information about campaigns prior to 2000, where the UN started a campaign to eradicate poverty by 2015. After which, there were many large global campaigns on poverty.
In this infographic, the first two sections relied mainly on colour, with the world map in colour to show the different levels of poverty. In addition, I added in the top 5 countries with the greatest and least poverty. This would provide additional information on top of the colours.
The use of colours in the timeline helps to show the different regions easily. I've also added the number of people in poverty in the top righthand corner to show the difference.
The facts and figures titles have been removed, and the pictograms and text are able to show the comparison between rich and poor in one glance. I've also taken the advice of fellow classmates to change the colours of some of the pictograms and text below to show that each icon is not related to the timeline above. This section of the infographic would be able to show the wealth discrepancy between the rich and the poor, as poverty alone does not tell much without comparison.
