As part of its oil and gas development off the coast of Alaska’s North Slope, Shell Oil is mandated to conduct public engagement activities in local communities affected by Shell’s operations. They provide an opportunity for Shell to explain how the exploration, production and distribution of hydrocarbons work and what impact they will have on traditional life, the economy and the environment on the North Slope. To enable Shell’s staff to engage their target audience effectively, we designed a toolkit consisting of brochures, tabletop displays, videos and PowerPoint presentations.
