Dear Friends In my introductory post to this list I had mentioned that we were working on a series of posters on the theme of sustainability which were intended for a meeting of CEO's at the World Economic Forum at Davos last week. The event took place on the 29th January 2009 at the World Economic Forum and we have a preliminary report on the event from the organisers which I have posted on my blog "Design for India" along with images on the five posters that we had designed specifically for this event. Some fifty CEO's of global corporations and officials of the World Economic Forum used these posters and the case studies included to explore the wider implications of the themes and have developed strategies that could be taken forward in each of their efforts in the days ahead. The posters can be seen at this link below and I will report on the details of the event when I get more news from Davos when the organisers complete their report on the outcomes from the event. <http://design-for-india.blogspot.com/2009/02/world-economic-forum-sustainability.html> While the blog post includes jpeg files that are readable on screen I have printable resolution pdf files in A3 size of all the posters which I can share freely but I have to figure out how to upload these from our slow connection at my school. Those interested can write to me offline or on this list and I will figure out a way to get these out to those interested.
