The aim of the workshop is for participants to acquire skills relating to the creation of information architecture using visual communication. The workshop is aimed at people who have no prior experience of graphic design software.
The work will be based on Google Slides; due to the need to generate charts, it will also make use of Google Sheets. Alternatively, each participant may use another presentation and charting tool of their choice.
As part of the workshop, each participant will prepare a presentation using the information provided, which will include icons, maps and charts.
The workshop will take place in two 90-minute sessions. Maximum number of participants: 25.
