Millenium TimeMap Application
Overview
design

The Millenium TimeMap Application is a
platform that combines an interactive
timeline with the power of Google Maps
to provide a visual framework that shows
when and where stories and events take
place.

Combined with a countdown to deadlines
and the ability for organizations and
individuals to contribute and share stories,
photos, videos and documents, it is a
ﬂexible platform to bring any subject into
global context.

Material can be posted from anywhere and
automatically appears on the timeline and
map.

The following pages show the application
being used for The Road to Huruma, a
project tracking global progress to the
deadline for the Millenium Development
Goals.

The Application is easily customized to
your organization’s subject matter and
speciﬁc audience.

Sample Project
The Road to Huruma is a Website that
design

showcases progress made toward the
Millenium Development Goals, specifically
those related to children

One of the clearest lessons of the past five
years of striving to achieve the goals for
children is the importance of partnerships.

Neither governments nor local
communities nor international
organizations nor NGOs can fulfill the
rights of children by working in isolation.

They need to collaborate, even while
assuming different responsibilities. With
cooperation, their efforts will reinforce and
amplify each other.

The Road to Huruma provides the platform
these organizations need to share
information — giving them a forum to
contribute their stories, give them context,
and — most importantly, act on what is
being presented


Primary Audiences
Small organizations and individuals
design

The site provides a way for small
operations to tell their stories and use
available media in their own endeavors
(from downloading a PDF to being able to
embed a story on their own website)

Large NGOs
The site provides a way for large NGOs to
showcase their successful MDG-based
efforts, so that they can demonstrate their
value to key stakeholders

It also provides a way for large
organizations to leverage lessons at a
global level – so that they can avoid wheel-
reinvention and piggy-back on successful
programs to accelerate progress

For both audiences
The site provides a way to show local
solutions to a global problem –
demonstrating that progress toward
massive goals is being achieved in big
ways and small ways, by large entities and
committed individuals

TimeMap
When & Where
At the heart of the site is the TimeMap.
showing MDG-related news and stories on
a synchronized map and timeline

Set against a digital countdown to the
MDG deadline of 2015, the TimeMap
shows users where and when progress is
being made against the MDGs and their
deadline

As you scroll through the timeline to
explore events, the map animates to
display where they took place - an
interactive time machine showing the
history of progress and events to come.

Users can sort stories and information by
date or location or goal or subject


design

TimeMap
Investigating the Stories
Clicking on a label either in the Timeline or
Map displays a short overview of that
story, zooming in to the location where it
took place.
