Together to Save Energy: Awareness Campaign
The Department of Media and Communication recently held an awareness titled 'Together to Save Energy' in Al-Muftaha Cultural Village in cooperation with nearly 300 residents.
The campaign is a graduation project delivered by a group of female students for the 1439-40 academic year under the supervision of Department Supervisor, Nora Amer, Dr. Ali Zuheer Al-Qahtani, and Dr. Nuha Jagfar.
The energy-awareness campaign aims to reduce the amount of wasted energy as well as increase societal awareness. Organizers of the campaign noted that bringing about a change in behavior is related to positive reinforcement of techniques. Some of those techniques include turning off appliances that are left on, such as:
- Chargers;
- TVs;
- Home Appliances;
- Computer Monitors;
- Tablets;
- Other Portable Devices;
- Photocopiers.
Of noteworthy mention, the campaign included a video that explained the initial steps to saving energy, infographic brochures, and gifts.
