The three poster designs received positive feedback, with testers noting improved clarity on sustainability initiatives and increased interest in sustainable actions. Though not physically tested on campus, survey responses confirmed the posters effectively communicated their messages and encouraged more sustainable behaviours. This project has the potential to foster climate-conscious behaviour at MRU and serve as a foundation for future sustainability campaigns.<\/span><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"texteditor-inline-color\"><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tree-child-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"project-module module text project-module-text align- js-project-module e2e-site-project-module-text\">\n<div class=\"rich-text js-text-editable module-text\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_heading title=&#8221;Final Thoughts&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; title_font=&#8221;&#8211;et_global_heading_font|700|on||||||&#8221; title_text_color=&#8221;gcid-83f0f885-132e-435d-9f1a-d77147b571c1&#8243; title_font_size=&#8221;35px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{%22gcid-83f0f885-132e-435d-9f1a-d77147b571c1%22:%91%22title_text_color%22%93}&#8221;][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;&#8211;et_global_body_font|300|||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; max_width=&#8221;1082px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<section class=\"page standard-modules\">\n<div class=\"page-content js-page-content\" data-context=\"pages\" data-identity=\"id:p671f21becb7d2f29362bdef62ca16b05969ceeae35449698f19f0\">\n<div id=\"project-canvas\" class=\"js-project-modules modules content\">\n<div id=\"project-modules\">\n<div class=\"project-module module tree project-module-tree js-js-project-module e2e-site-project-module-tree\">\n<div class=\"tree-wrapper valign-top\">\n<div class=\"tree-child-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"project-module module text project-module-text align- js-project-module e2e-site-project-module-text\">\n<div class=\"rich-text js-text-editable module-text\">\n<div>\n<div><span class=\"texteditor-inline-color\">This project was both challenging and rewarding, pushing us to navigate the complexities of designing for behavior change. A key challenge was balancing the diverse perspectives within our team. While aligning everyone&#8217;s insights was sometimes difficult, it ultimately strengthened our approach. Synthesizing broad research findings into targeted solutions required collaboration and compromise. Despite time constraints and limited testing, our teamwork allowed us to create a campaign that effectively addresses MRU students&#8217; needs and promotes sustainable behaviors. This experience underscored the value of teamwork, empathy, and iterative design in tackling real-world issues.<\/span><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"texteditor-inline-color\"><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"other-projects\" data-context=\"page.page.other_pages\" data-hover-hint=\"otherPages\">\n<div class=\"title-wrapper\"><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_button button_text=&#8221;Back to Portfolio&#8221; button_alignment=&#8221;right&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;922582c8-22fa-453e-a4b4-ce5d353d566d&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; button_url=&#8221;https:\/\/chiarapravlik.fastlinks.ca\/index.php\/portfolio\/&#8221; button_font=&#8221;&#8211;et_global_body_font|700|||||||&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; admin_label=&#8221;Footer&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; positioning=&#8221;none&#8221; saved_tabs=&#8221;all&#8221; collapsed=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;90%&#8221; max_width=&#8221;none&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.23.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;492344f6-0838-4d86-85fa-907615fe95ae&#8221; max_width=&#8221;700px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{%22gcid-649cc733-e42a-4379-a110-56be4153271c%22:%91%22header_2_text_color%22%93}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>Chiara Pravlik<br \/>Information Designer<\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.23.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Design Process | Team ProjectIn this team project, we explored solutions to foster climate-conscious behaviour change among MRU students.
