The U.N. Development Program is sponsoring round-trip flights to attend a data revolution conference in Cartagena, Colombia, for those who come up with the most artistic, original and useful data visualizations of its human development data sets.
Apart from the free airfare and participation in the Cartagena Data Festival, which will take place April 20-22, the finalists will get three days of accommodation, certificates and small local gifts.
The Human Development Visualization Competition is a follow-up to a similar event in 2011, and the goal is to have more rounds in the future, Eleonore Fournier-Tombs, online communication manager of the UNDP Human Development Report Office, told Devex.
