Morphology
The phrase 'increased visibility' is directly and transparently built from 'increased' (made greater) and 'visibility' (how much something is noticed), so a learner who knows both constituents can infer it means greater public recognition or awareness. The adjective+noun composition is a common, productive pattern in English (and cross-linguistically), making the meaning immediately predictable for a B1 learner.
Etymology
Increased visibility comes from the simple image of making something easier to see, like turning on a bright light or putting a flag on a hill so people notice it more. Increased means more and visibility means how easy something is to see, so the phrase now means 'more noticed' or 'better known' by the public.
