COUNTRY PROFILE POSTER PRESENTATION GUIDELINES
General aim and format
• A poster is a graphically based approach to presenting data.
• Limit the text to about one-fourth of the poster space, and use “visuals” (graphs, photographs, schematics, maps, etc.) to tell your “story.”
Design and layout specifications
• The entire poster must be mounted on a 40″ x 60″ foam-core or card board. The poster does not necessarily have to fill the entire working area.
• The board must be oriented in the “landscape” position (long dimension is horizontal).
• A banner displaying your poster title, name, and department (or class, if appropriate) should be positioned at top-center of the board (see Figure below).
• Make it obvious to the viewer how to progressively view the poster. The poster generally should read from left to right, and top to bottom. Numbering the individual panels, or connecting them with arrows is a standard “guidance system” (see Figure).
• Leave some open space in the design. An open layout is less tiring to the eye and mind.
Lettering
• Use captions for each visual.
• Text should be readable from five feet away. Use a minimum font size of 18 points.
• Lettering for the title should be large (at least 70-point font). Use all caps for the title.
Visuals
• Visuals should be simple and bold. Leave out or remove any unnecessary details.
• Each visual should have a brief title (for example: Location of study area).
