The United Nations Multi-Country Office serves Jamaica, The Bahamas, Bermuda, the Cayman Islands and the Turks and Caicos Islands — one UN team across five countries and territories. Its 2025 Annual Results Report landed in the year Hurricane Melissa rewrote the agenda, and had to carry both: a rigorous account of a US$36-million programme, and the people behind every number. We designed the full seventy-plus-page report, cover to data annex.

Concept, layout system, data design and final artwork for the UN’s flagship annual report in the northern Caribbean. The system runs on softly rounded wave shapes drawn from the cover geometry, a bespoke icon set that gives each of the five islands its own mark — hummingbird, island cottage, sloop, conch and turtle — and photography-led spreads that keep people at the centre of every chapter.
One document had to speak for five countries and territories and more than twenty UN agencies, funds and programmes — without reading like a stack of separate reports.
2025 was the year of Hurricane Melissa. The report had to hold devastation and recovery with dignity while remaining, at its core, a results and accountability document.
The data ran deep — a US$64-million budget, 487 projects, expenditure across four priority areas and seventeen SDGs — and all of it had to read at a glance.
Build one UN identity for five islands: UN blue carried on wave-rounded shapes, with a bespoke icon for every territory so each is present on every spread.
Lead with photography and people — survivors, volunteers, students — and open chapters on full-bleed images rather than walls of text.
Design the dashboards: budget cards, priority-area delivery bars, marker charts and an SDG expenditure profile, all set in the report’s own palette.
A seventy-plus-page flagship report delivered for online release — the UN’s year across Jamaica, The Bahamas, Bermuda, the Cayman Islands and the Turks and Caicos in one coherent document. The financial chapter turns a US$64M-required, US$36M-spent year into a dashboard you can read at arm’s length, and five small island marks give every territory a seat on every page.
