APT: Voices For Human Dignity (1984-2024) by Self-employed

This visualization highlights the progress made in prohibiting and preventing torture over the past 40 years since the adoption of the Convention Against Torture by the United Nations in 1984.

Using eight key indicators, the visualization tracks how countries have strengthened their legal and institutional frameworks to prevent torture. As you adjust the slider from 1984 to 2024, you’ll see flowers bloom, with their petals changing from grey to various shades of blue, symbolizing the gradual progress made in torture prevention worldwide.

This interactive experience not only illustrates change over time but also serves as a testament to global efforts in upholding human dignity and human rights.
