GLOBAL SUMMIT
ONE YOUNG WORLD JOHANNESBURG
One Young World is a conference for young entrepeneurs and an opportunity to attend guest lectures and Q&A’s from the likes of Richard Branson, Kofi Annan & astronaut Ron Garan.
We created an interactive social media visualisation for the One Young World summit in Johannesburg. One Young World is a non-profit initiative founded by Havas Worldwide that gathers together the brightest young people from around the world, empowering them to make lasting connections to create positive change.
The wall visualised the live Twitter activity surrounding the One Young World event in two forms: a world map showing the delegates connecting with each other online and building a global network, and a word cloud showing the most frequently tweeted words.
The only event that has more countries represented than One Young World is the Olympic Games.
