For the 2023 World Data Visualization Prize, submissions are requested. The prize, which was introduced for the 2019 edition, emphasizes how governments are enhancing the lives of residents as well as the innovations – both visible and invisible – that fuel and gauge success in this area.
The World Government Summit Organization, a worldwide, impartial, non-profit organization committed to influencing the future of governments, is the host of this $50,000 global creative data challenge. Datasets and topics are provided by them. You offer imaginative, clear data visualizations that create a story or highlight an intriguing aspect of the data.
The winning artworks will be awarded monetary prizes, will be featured in the international press, and will have the opportunity to be shown to world leaders during the World Government Summit in February 2023.
This year’s prize focuses on the past, present and future. How well has the world progressed and improved in recent years? Where do we stand right now and how could we measure that? And what factors and drivers might shape society, government and citizens of the future?
Theme:
Championing the power of data-visualization to inspire new ways of thinking and seeing the world
Categories of The World Data Visualization Prize 2023
Just choose a concept and a dataset. Dive in, explore, create. Choose one or visualize all three of the following competition concepts and datasets.
- What Just Happened? What’s improved? What’s broken through? What’s gone supernova? Charting our development across many different metrics over a 10 year period to highlight the successes – and the bottlenecks.
- Dashboard of the Present Future. Governments need to see how well they, their nation and their populace are doing – from a data-perspective. Design us a data display for this purpose. How might it look, feel and function. Which metrics are primary?
- The Future of Frontiers. What factors and drivers might shape the society, government and citizens of the future? Tracking and visualising our progress and predictions for innovation in adaptation, future governance, public services, and social technology.
