If a picture is not worth a thousand words : digital infographics use during the Covid-19 pandemic crisis

2021 - Franco Angeli

52-70 p.

  • This work aims to investigate the role played by public sector visual communication within the specific context of an emergency. The analysis of the infographics divulged during the pandemic will focus on the meanings, themes, linguistic registers and narrative methods that have characterized the information divulged by the Ministry of Health and by Italian Regional Governments through institutional websites and social media accounts. The emergence of new idioms and language in the ehealth management sector represents an opportunity to reflect on the roles and skills of publicsector communicators, and on emergency communication as such.
