Translating Growth Lab research into online visualizations
The Viz Hub is a portfolio of visualization tools, interactive stories, and supporting software packages, powered by the Growth Lab's research. All projects found on the Viz Hub are built in-house by the Growth Lab's Digital Development & Design Team, an interdisciplinary group that connects economic and policy research with best practices from information design, software development, data science, product management, and digital humanities.

That means the most effective way to help those people, according to Center for International Development (CID) researchers at EPOD and the Building State Capability (BSC) program, is engaging with national, state, and local officials.
