Project Description

This project is an infographic focusing on the effect of tourism, all-inclusive resorts, and catering to foreigners in Mexico. Sources regarding history and statistics of Mexican hospitality were utilized, as well as its economic contribution and the true cost of labor. It was created for the purpose of educating the viewer on social injustices within the Mexican tourism industry, discrimination towards lower-class women, as well as what tourists—often from the United States—are really paying for.
