Headings

Each module in the Digital Situation Report requires you to include a heading that will appear as the “headline” for that piece of content. These are similar to the headings used in the Humanitarian Bulletin. Ideally, headings should strike a balance that is both short and informative, rather than too short (and vague) or too detailed (and very long). A few examples of stronger and weaker versions of headings for the same content appear below.
