Visualization Contest: COVID-19, a pandemic with many realities.

The contest is over. We will announce the winner shortly. 

---

How can we show inequality and its manifestations during the pandemic? Latin America and the Caribbean is the most unequal region in the world. Covid-19 is affecting some populations, cities and people more than others, and is deepening preexisting inequalities. Overcrowding, lack of access to social services and labor markets, informality, non-attendance at school or lack of support for vulnerable populations, such as children, migrants, people with disabilities, peoples, indigenous people, Afro-descendants, LGTBQ + population, are some of the great challenges identified but there are many more challenges.

At the IDB, we want to show that inequality through a graph. We are looking for the best data visualizations to show the reality of the pandemic in our region. You can use our databases, but you can also use any other (or even mix them!). If you use external databases, they must comply with national regulations regarding data protection.
