Comparative Cartography Assists War on Drugs & Crime

Posted by Meena Kadri | 15-10-2009 08:45 | Category: Drugs

Pentagram partner Harry Pearce recently devised a project for the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNDOC) which provided graphic training tools for the Russian police. Employing national abbreviations (GB, US, RU, etc) the folding posters presented comparative data surrounding drug abuse, intervention, therapy and health related consequences as a way of clarifying various aspects of drug policy during training sessions. (English versions shown here, with Russian versions being used on the ground. More posters can be viewed via Pentagram)
