5. Rebranding a City in Conflict - Mogadishu, Somalia
After 21 years of war, Mogadishu is commonly known as the "most dangerous city in the world." However, unless a new image and identity can be established internally and externally, it will never be at peace and systems of violence and conflict will dominate.
A branding campaign was created with the Mayor of Mogadishu to promote positive messages about the new stability and positive future of the city for local populations. A website was also created and launched for Somalis in diaspora to share their stories of change in the city.
