Greater Sudbury's Vital Signs Report

The design for the Greater Sudbury’s Vital Signs 2016 report focuses on providing information and statistics for the developing community. Designing it meant that the data provided needed to be interpreted and developed into legible and easily understandable pieces of information. This year, Greater Sudbury’s Vital Signs had a special focus on Aboriginal well-being which was put at the forefront of the report. It was investigated to shed light on aboriginal issues concerning the communities within the area.
