Data Visualization

Workshop Description:

Presenting complex data in eay to understand formats poses unique challenges. The visualization of data can matter as much as the data itself. The Design Action Collective are experts in the skill of data layout and presentation.

Join us to learn about data visualizations. In our workshop we’ll dive into the world of data visualizations and show example use cases. You’ll want to consider these in your organizations and in your campaigns. There will be ample time to workshop your specific examples in small groups, so please come with your real world problems!
