The "UNSDG Postcard" invites students to produce a piece of collateral material that focusses on the goal and target that most resonates with them. Their task is to work in teams to vote on a concept, write a copy, then collaborate with PRLN 1110 Graphic Design & Production students to choose a format, colour palate, images, and font treatment and produce a final piece of printed or digital collateral. Welcome to your role in an international mission. This mission is dedicated to expanding educational access and championing student empowerment through "open pedagogy." In this approach, you, as a student, are at the heart of an engaging, collaborative learning environment, with the freedom to access your educational journey. What is this mission's ultimate goal? To heighten social justice in our community, promoting the free exchange of knowledge and work. Under the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) framework, this renewable assignment paves your path to becoming an agent of change within your community. Prepare to embark on this transformative journey. For this work, we will integrate the disciplines of Public Relations and Communications to achieve the primary goal of responding to SDG #3: Good Health and Wellbeing. Within this SDG, we will focus on the specific target 3.9: "By 2030, substantially reduce the number of deaths and illnesses from hazardous chemicals and air, water and soil pollution and contamination." This assignment also focuses on SDG #1: No Poverty; SDG #2: Zero Hunger; SDG #4: Quality Education; SDG #5: Gender Equality; SDG #6: Clean Water and Sanitation; SDG #7: Affordable and Clean Energy; and SDG #8: Decent Work and Economic Growth.
