5.1 Survey on Socioeconomic Impacts of COVID-19
The dataset used is the RGA data collected by UN Women. We made three horizontal bar charts to display the percentage(%) of women reporting change in work hours, job loss and income loss as a result of the pandemic. We have incorporated a new dimension here which is the respondents region/continent; therefore, trends across regions/continents can be observed.
To interact with the graph, the audience only needs to click the dropdown menu and select the variable that they would like to explore. This interactivity would allow the audience to be familiar with the list of available variables and therefore have a better idea of what they want to look for; they can then focus on their target variable and get to the results faster by selecting their target with the dropdown menu. They can also switch between the results that they are interested in more conveniently.
