New blog, and new project
We’re delighted to bring you our blog - now on the website for the very first time. Be sure to check back for regular updates on our projects, featured volunteers, interviews, visualisations and more.
We’ll use this first blog post as a round-up of some of our recent activity. If you’ve come this far, you’ll have seen our brand new logo. But did you know, there’s a whole design process behind it, which strongly adheres to our values of community and data visualisation? Designed by our Education Director Nisa Mara, we hope you enjoy the new logo as much as we now love it. Our article on the design process was featured in Nightingale, the online journal of the Data Visualization Society.

If all of this has whetted your appetite to take part in a project with Viz For Social Good, you’re in luck! Our latest project is now LIVE and we’re welcoming visulisations up to September 26th, with a live presentation event with Sunny Street on October 1st.

We’re fortunate to have one submission already - within hours of opening the project we received this long form beauty from Karolina Grodzinska, one of our volunteers from Boston. Click through on the image to see the interactive version on Tableau Public.
