This year, students are working with whose people are at its heart. The charity helps Ukrainian refugees recover from crisis as they settle into their new environment whilst connecting with other Ukrainians in the region.
BA (Hons) Computer Animation Technical Arts student Michael Mikulicz said, 鈥淲e believe that every person affected by the war deserves access to the help they need, and with our work we are ensuring that these people know that there is help via the Dorset Ukrainian Community.鈥�

A spokesperons at National Park City Foundation explained, 鈥淲e are part of the Nature Health Network based at 新加坡多多开奖记录. We are always looking at new ways to promote the ethos of greener, healthier and wilder cities and loved the idea of a short animation created by the great students at BU.
鈥淲e have previously used a lot of static images to demonstrate how cities could be greened - working with the students to not only demonstrate greening through animation but also telling the story of urban lives has been great. It will help us to convey our message in a different way, attract different people to those that we normally reach and get more people involved with the organisation.鈥�
The (RNLI) charity is well established across Bournemouth, Christchurch, and Poole. Their work has benefited people living in the UK for 200 years. Students鈥� creative contributions will support the RNLI鈥檚 200 Voices campaign running in the lead up to the anniversary celebrations.

The work that they do as a charity is incredible and hits close to home for all of us here on the coast, so it was valuable to be able to give something back.鈥�
Executive Dean for the Faculty of Media & Communication, Professor Einar Thorsen remarked, 鈥淲e are particularly pleased to be working with the RNLI in their bicentenary year, to help celebrate the fantastic work their volunteers do to save lives at sea.
