“Sketchnote for Good” project: Connecting the community through drawings

The project introduction session recorded the participation of 12 UEF-ers selected through interviews with passions for drawing.
 

Ms. Dinh Nguyen Thien An - Director of the Center of Service-Learning representing the Project Advisory Board and the coordinators of the Center also attended and had a few words to send to the new members. In order to help students clearly understand the project's goals, Ms. Thien An showed the background of ideation and the core values that the "Sketchnote for Good'' project aimed to achieve during its 3 months of operation. From there, all the members clearly understand their roles in using Sketchnote skills to convey meaningful messages about the elderly and people with cerebral palsy (CP Cerebral Palsy) to the targeted young people in a closer and more alive way.

Held on the online platform, the members were advised to interact proactively and frequently to boost the productivity of the group. Per joining this activity, the members not only serve the community but also practice positive communication to form a firm connection among members.

The community partners of the project
 

The community partners of the “Sketchnote for Good '' project includes The Elderly of Saigon (ESG) and Cerebral Palsy Family Association Vietnam (CPFAV). The two community partners mentioned above will offer documents and tales about the project's target audience in order for members to implement visualization into Sketchnote products.

The highlight of the "Sketchnote for Good" project is the activity of integrating the audience's story into the products. As a result, participating students are not only creative in their service, but also trained to use more creative methods.
