Posters and Pamphlets

These are created to draw attention to something important or create awareness about various social issues. So, they have to be catchy, brief (verbosity has to be avoided at any cost), precise and in simple language. People should be able to read it easily, understand the message clearly and be motivated to act upon it.

Example - 1
You hear your grand parents talk about how beautiful your city used to be with lakes and gardens. But now a number of lakes have been filled in to create space for housing colonies, bus stands etc. Also this is having a deleterious effect on the weather, rainfall and health of the city. You have already formed a society called 'Children for a Cleaner City'. Through it you send out pamphlets calling on people to save the remaining lakes in the city. Complete this pamphlet in about 75 words.

 

                               Children for a cleaner city calls on you to
                                          PROTECT UR LAKES

Why should you do this?
The lakes in and around your city are very important to you.
They help to:

  • Keep temperature low
  • Increase rainfall in the area
  • Keep the water table high
  • Retain some open space in congested alleys
  • Beautify the city
  • Provide a place for evening outing



How can u do this?

Form a Resident's society to:

  • Ensure that the lake is not polluted
  • Supervise its regular cleaning
  • Be alert and resist any moves to fill it up
  • Spread awareness about the need for lakes


REMEMBER A LAKE IS NOT EASY MEANS TO DISPOSE WASTE
