Introduction
This week’s challenge is a little different, we will be looking to make-over a report from the Australian Bureau of Statistics.
This report contains a lot of information and data sources to download, so it is up to you as to how much or how little you want to do.
The primary challenge, however, is to highlight the key insight “Australians travel to Indonesia is now greater than pre-COVID levels”. Can you improve this bar chart to emphasise this insight, make it more readable and interpretable? Would you use a bar chart, another visual or custom visual? What other data and visuals would you bring in to supplement the story?
There is creative freedom with this challenge, as such, there will be no solution file this week.
