It's because of a driving force
that pushed me into this field

The question is why are we seeing
such a trend, and why are so many
organizations jumping on the bandwagon

The Internet caused
a few dramatic changes
that have deeply impacted
the way we communicate
over the last 10 years
![Page 18: Harnessing the Power (and Credibility) of Data in your PR Strategy](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030306/58cfa2021a28ab6b088b4fdb/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
EVERYBODY IS A NEWS SOURCE
Blogs gave individuals a voice
and allowed them to reach millions,
competing with major news sources.

THE RISE OF CONVERSATION
The communication dynamic
shifted from broadcast (one-way)
to online conversation.

DIVERSIFICATION OF CHANNELS
From 140-characters (Twitter) to 5min reads
(Medium), from quick snaps (Instagram) to live
video (Periscope), from visual scrapbooks (Pinterest)
to wonderful bazaar (Tumblr), from friends (Facebook) to
colleagues (LinkedIn),Etc..

All these important changes
happened rather quickly
and had a deep impact on our expectations
as consumers of information

1. MORE VISUALS! The rise of Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter cards (and Infographics!) is directly related to the fact that we're drowning in text, and need more diversity in the content we're consuming.
![Page 23: Harnessing the Power (and Credibility) of Data in your PR Strategy](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030306/58cfa2021a28ab6b088b4fdb/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
2. MORE INTERACTION! Only a few people will read through half of a web article. Interaction, animation and visual storytelling allow to turn passive readers into active participants.

3. MORE ENGAGEMENT! The notion of community of readers/users is increasingly important. Sharing & conversations are key to engagement.

These changes happened at the same time
as data was becoming more easily available
and that people started to explore
how to use it in their communication.

PRESS RELEASEIndonesia and World Bank Group to join forces to reduce child stunting and maternal mortality
Jakarta, May 21 2015 – In an effort to fight two major health issues – childhood stunting and women dying during childbirth -- Indonesia and the World Bank Group have agreed to seek immediate ways to reduce both preventable health problems. The decision followed a meeting between Indonesia President Joko Widodo and Bank Group President Jim Yong Kim in the presidential palace.
Kim said today that the Bank’s discussions with Indonesian authorities on the health issues will begin in the coming weeks and involve experts who have worked on both stunting and maternal mortality in a range of middle- and low-income countries, including China, Turkey, and Brazil. The two leaders spoke in their meeting of the urgency to tackle the issues, citing statistics that show 37 percent of all children in Indonesia are stunted and a maternal mortality rate of 190 out of 100,000 live births. Both rates are very high for a middle-income country.
“Stunting not only hurts physical growth – it also diminishes mental capacity,” Kim said today in a speech before students and faculty at the University of Indonesia. “ These children, and this country, pay a devastating price for this entirely preventable situation. It should not be allowed to persist.”
On the country’s high rates of maternal mortality, Kim said: “Indonesia has been able to reduce this slightly in recent years, but the rate is still excessively high considering Indonesia’s economic status and that women have access to universal maternal health coverage. We would very much like to bring the whole of our global knowledge on both of these issues to help Indonesia find solutions and dramatically reduce the incidence of stunting and maternal deaths.”
Kim added: “We are working with countries around the globe, including China, on ways to improve their delivery of health care and we welcome the opportunity to share lessons with Indonesia to see what might work best here,” said Dr. Kim. “We have reorganized the World Bank Group and are now faster and better at sharing global knowledge that can fix problems and improve people’s lives.”
Kim, who is a medical doctor and anthropologist by training, praised President Widodo for deciding to commit more resources to invest in the health of Indonesians through expanded universal coverage. Indonesia now spends only 1.2 percent of GDP on health care, one of the lowest rates in the world.
The announcement on health is part of a broader plan by the World Bank Group to support Indonesia’s development objectives. Over the next three to four years the Bank will provide more than $11 billion in financing for investments in critical infrastructure including energy, sea ports, better tax collection, and human development programs. The World Bank Group will also work with Indonesia to improve its business climate to attract more investors.
Kim’s announcement came during his first visit to Indonesia, where he also met with doctors and nurses at a health clinic in Central Java. In a public speech at the University of Indonesia, Dr. Kim reiterated that Indonesia has made remarkable gains by halving the poverty rate to 11.3 percent in 15 years and it can make even more progress if it increases investments in the health of its people.

Therefore, we are pleased that this transaction will keep Archambault’s retail operations in Québec hands. Renaud-Bray has built its reputation by developing the market for French-language cultural goods and offering Quebecers quality products,” Mr. Dion added.

The world map helps see the coverage, the yellow discs expand and animal pictures flash as the timeline progresses: the visual cues help understand intuitively what the data is about.

The tap interaction is fun and feel like a game of guessing/discovering what the animal will look like. At the same time, the visualization allows to discover trends and prepares for the WPI.
