Project Description
This poster describes the symptoms of malaria, urges people to get tested if they are experiencing symptoms, and notes some specific measures to take to prevent malarial infection. This poster was created for Northwestern University’s Access to Health Project, a community-led literacy and health access project, as a visual accompaniment to their text-heavy instructional material. The 16:9 aspect ratio was required so the piece could be used as a printed poster or on a mobile device. In addition, the piece needed to convey the information with or without the included text.
