CM5022/CM4091 Place Branding
Explore Iceland鈥檚 unique approach to promoting environmental and cultural sustainability. Dip into the Blue Lagoon, scan the night skies for the Northern lights, spelunk an ice cave. Meet local brand managers, place influencers and cultural researchers as we conduct ethnographic and communication field research and study the globalized-market-driven 鈥榩romotional culture鈥� that is transforming Iceland鈥檚 local customs and traditions and challenging the people鈥檚 shared sense of place and nation. Come to understand how citizens, tourists, activists and academics 鈥榗ommune with nature鈥� while interrogating the contemporary marketing, branding and 鈥榩ublic diplomacy鈥� process of place & destination branding.
