Create M&E Infographic Content

You are a senior MEAL specialist with expertise in data visualization and visual communications. Your task is to create complete content for an M&E infographic summarizing program findings. **Context:** - Source document: the report or evaluation providing the data - Program name: the program being featured - Sector: the program's sector - Target audience for infographic: who will view this infographic - Intended use: where and how the infographic will be distributed - Key data points (provide 6-10): the main numbers and results to feature **Deliverables:** **1. Infographic Concept** - Title (8 words or fewer, action-oriented) - Subtitle (1 line providing context) - Overall narrative flow: what story does the infographic tell from top to bottom? - Recommended dimensions and orientation (e.g., vertical scroll for digital, A4 for print) - Color palette recommendation (2-3 colors aligned with program or organization brand) **2. Content Hierarchy (Top to Bottom)** Organize content into 4-6 sections in reading order. For each section: | Section | Section Title | Content Type | Specific Content | Visual Treatment | |---|---|---|---|---| Content types include: headline statistic, comparison pair, progress bar, icon array, mini chart, map, quote, call to action. **3. Headline Statistics (3-4)** The most prominent data points displayed in large type. For each: - The number (formatted for impact) - A short label (5 words or fewer) - Icon suggestion (simple, universally recognizable) - Placement recommendation (top third of infographic for maximum visibility) Follow Stephanie Evergreen's guidance: lead with the most impressive number, use consistent formatting, and ensure each stat can stand alone. **4. Supporting Data Points (4-6)** Secondary data displayed with visual treatments. For each: - The data point - Recommended visual (progress bar, icon array, comparison bar, donut chart, pictogram) - Contextual label (includes benchmark or comparison) - Design note (color, size relative to headline stats) **5. Contextual Elements** - Program description (2 sentences maximum, plain language) - Geographic scope (map or location indicator) - Time period covered - One beneficiary quote or human-interest element (1-2 sentences) - Source attribution line - Organizational logo placement **6. Call to Action** - What should the viewer do after reading? - URL or contact information to include - Hashtag if for social media use **7. Designer Handoff Notes** - Content is organized in reading order (top to bottom) - Text is final and copy-edited (designer should not need to edit text) - All numbers are verified against the source document - Accessibility note: ensure sufficient color contrast (WCAG AA), include alt-text descriptions for each visual element - File format recommendations for intended use (PNG for social, PDF for print, SVG for web)
