Unemployment in European Union infographic

This infographic is my own representation about unemployment in the European Union. It talks about the rates of unemployment by sex, years and countries. Furthermore, it explains the employment rates by sectors of activity: services, industry and agriculture. It is abstract in bar and line charts but it is also figurative in the part of the map of the European Union. It is very functional because every section and element that composes this representation provides information and relevant data about the theme that is treated. All the elements are important in the contextualization and explanation of unemployment in the European Union. It is also quite light, data are presented in a clear way far from overwhelm audience and there is not much information. The infographic is more multidimensional because of all the perspectives that have been chosen to speak about the topic. Unemployment and employment rates have been shown by sex, year, country and sectors. These types of graphics are pretty familiar, the publis is used to see this representations but I think that in order to make information comprehensible never hurts to use known methods so that people remember the data easier. Finally, this infographic is novel because data are not repeated and it tries to show it talking about different sur-topics in order to provide with a greater wealth the knowledge hat has to be acquired. To sum up, it is very readable and easy to understand, the colors are attractive and familiarity in charts facilitate the recognition of the data presented. It is effective  for these reasons.
