Visualizing the Child Refugee Crisis by Slalom

Many Americans struggle to understand the scope and impact of humanitarian crises happening outside our borders. This visualization engages the user into the problem and relates the scale of the issue in a context they can relate to - children in their own neighborhood. By applying simplistic and straight-forward visuals to an extremely complex problem, I increase the opportunity for empathy. Through the use of photos and a call to action, the user is reminded of the possibility of a better tomorrow and given an easy way to react.
