Get Graphic with the National KIDS COUNT Infographic Challenge |
Rhode Islanders are invited to enter the national KIDS COUNT Infographic Challenge. The Challenge is an online crowdsourced competition for young people (ages 13-23) and adults (age 24 and up) to use KIDS COUNT data to illustrate the story of America's children.
The Challenge is simple: tap into the powerful combination of art and data to educate, inform and engage. Great data and a fresh perspective can change how we think and inspire us to find new solutions to problems we face. To enter:
Visit the KIDS COUNT Data Center and find data that speaks to you. Design an infographic or visual image using that data. (Need help? Check out visual.ly.) Upload it to the Challenge platform and activate your social networks to get your friends to vote for your entry when the voting period opens. |
