I loved the simplicity of your infographic. My father is from Nigeria – and he’s always telling me about job opportunities for women in Nigeria. It was interesting to see some of this information confirmed in that job opportunities are available – however, it seems like most of those jobs are going to men. It definitely makes me want to do my own research. To see where are the working women in Nigeria.
I love the topic of this infographic, but I would have liked to see more statistics. It is very well known that the labor force is inequal in some third world countries, especially in Africa, but I think it creates a stronger impact for your viewers when they see numbers and statistics. For example, out of this infogrpahic what remember most is the “1 in 3 women have been sexually abused.” I liked the part where you put in how Nigeria has its first female Finance Minister. You mentioned she has made a big impact in economic growth, so it would have been nice to see some statistics or examples of how much improvement has been made. Also, you mentioned that progress has been made slowly, but it is still very unequal. I would be interested to see some percentages of equality of women from the past to present. Overall, I think you did a very good job of keeping a simple infographic and not bombarding your viewers with too much information. I also really enjoy how you took the large issue of women inequality and narrowed it into a specific idea, like women in the workforce in Nigeria.
