Social mobility in Mexico: Graphs that help understanding the relation between education and socio-economic level

This information design study is based on a social mobility survey developed in Mexico that investigated how people are moving – between generations – from one socioeconomic level to the next. The aim of the design project is to offer data visualizations to help people from different backgrounds understand complex issues, such as the relationship between level of education and income level. The visualizations consist of bar graphs in motion and images that help users identify themselves with various living situations. The graphs were tested among different users to confirm their effectiveness.
