DESIGNING CRISIS
The influences of Visual Design on Political Risk and Crisis Communication: Explored on the Case of COVID-19 (2020-2022)
Description
COVID-19, climate crisis, war, demographic change, … – Our world is in a period of polycrises that are constantly testing the patience, health and courage of the world’s population.
The thesis ‘DESIGNING CRISIS’: The Influences of Visual Design on Political Risk and Crisis Communication: Explored on the Case of COVID-19 (2020-2022)’ attempts to transfer the health-promoting influences of visual communication on political communication to precisely these risks and crises using the example of the still relevant corona pandemic. The aim of the work is to create a general understanding of the processes behind political risk and crisis communication and, building on this, to suggest how society and politics could interact in the future.
