Design Process
The Wadah Global Gathering 2018, conducted on 22-23 March 2018, was a two-day event that gathered like-minded individuals celebrating women who had been working courageously and tirelessly to address the challenges confronting their societies, cultures and communities.
I was in charge of the overall design of the materials used for the event including event logo, flyers, booklets, banners, digital advertisements, shirt design, etc.
The main theme of the event was "WOMEN: Torchbearers and Pillars of Hope." Incorporating the two keywords - women and torchbearers, I created a logo that visualizes the torch flame in the shape of a woman’s face.
Aside from the event logo, a photo of a flaming torch was also used as a main design for the event - used in the banner, booklets, t-shirts, etc. The flaming torch is a symbol of what the women stand up for and believe in. When you take up the torch yourself, you show your support for the women by recognizing the hope they bring to the society.
Aside from graphic design needs, I was also in charge of the video reels needed for the event which required collated videos from the speakers to be edited for cohesiveness and ensure smooth transition. Some videos which were in the local language had to be translated to English for subtitles.

Key Learnings/Reflection
This event was the second Wadah Global Gathering I was a part of which is why my previous experience helped me recognize the things that needed to be prepared and how to execute actions effectively.
