Jury comments:
"This is an excellent example of advocacy journalism, where the whole package has the potential to educate and raise policy awareness. Through a combination of strong graphics, a relatively easy-to-use navigation system, and a wide array of content ranging from short narrative linear multimedia pieces to graphs, photography, maps, games and other interactive elements, the viewer can learn about the issue, get absorbed in the stories and become activated into the issue."
