Large difference in employment rates between men and women!

If you compare the employment rates in EU regions, you will notice that the female employment rates still lag behind the male rates in most of the regions.

The EU has set a policy target in this area of halving the gender employment gap from 11.7% in 2019 to 5.8% by 2030.

The green regions shown here are those that have already attained the target.

Sorry for your blindness but green to red are very standard range colors for numerous things. Weather, heatmaps, elevation… What do you do for those?

I complain about them.

We are living in the year 2023.

Colorblind friendly palettes are not non existend.

Eurostat is an agency doing plots as their business. Professionals should think about coloring.

Talk about it so that people are aware of the problem and do something about it.

Just curious, but do the filters found in accessibility on most phones work at all to visualize this type of graphics?

FWIW heatmaps often use blue (cold) to red (hot).

Yes.

Or simply do black/white.

You dont need such non contrast color scales.

The max/min colors are based on their rgb:

85/15/25 %

Vs.

15/30/20 %

Does anyome really think that little shift in the red space is making a lot of contrast?
