Corporate Citizenship Sponsors City Forward

IBM has developed a thoughtful, comprehensive approach to corporate citizenship that aligns with IBM’s values and maximizes the impact we can make as a global enterprise. We focus on specific societal issues, including the environment, community economic development, education, health, literacy, language and culture.


City Forward collects data for many cities from sources around the world


User interface goals

Provide city data from around the globe

Allow the user to compare cities

Allow the user to connect, discuss and take action


Selecting cities and subjects

First attempt “Global Filters”

Let the user choose anything


Let's try some business logic

Second attempt “FRED” (Filters Redesigned)


Can we solve this with the interface?


A more direct route
