Switzerland’s Contribution

Achievements of Swiss development cooperation

In 2012 the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation SDC saw the need to aggregate and publish the results of its activities over a five-year period. This first resulted in a 64-page impact assessment on behalf of the Swiss parliament and other decision-makers. It illustrates eight thematic areas of SDC activity and the main results achieved. The client looked for an easily accessible format of texts and data. Apart from visualization, a particular challenge consisted in retrieving information from the thematic networks in a timely manner and translate it into a more journalistic format.
