Changing perceptions with design 2

In this starter activity students will work on developing a ‘marketing and branding’ campaign for Pure Water. The objective is to engage the local community in the project in a positive way, providing a ‘feel good factor’ about this development. The campaign will need to look at the overall package for the scheme, including logos, slogans, adverts, podcasts, posters etc.
