Hi, my name is Julie Sauerwein, i'm a Visual designer for humanitarian and development programmes. I create posters, books, workshops, objects, campaigns, that work At the intersection of behaviour change, participatory design and visual storytelling. we talk about child protection, nutrition, WASH, disability inclusion, mental health, education, psychosocial support, gender, migration and law.

What I do

I help mission-driven organisations communicate complex, human topics clearly — through illustration, campaign design, publications and participatory workshops.

Campaign design
End-to-end visual campaigns for awareness, behaviour change, or advocacy — posters, social media assets, billboards, and print materials designed to reach and resonate with a specific audience.

Illustration & icon sets
Custom illustration for reports, toolkits, websites and educational materials — built to make dense or sensitive information easier to absorb.

Books & publications
Layout and illustration for reports, manifestos, storybooks and training materials, from concept through to print-ready file.

Participatory design & workshops
Facilitating creative workshops with communities and teams — using visual and creative methods to co-design materials that genuinely reflect the people they’re for.

Brand & identity for social causes
Visual identities for campaigns, programmes or organisations that need to look credible, feel human and speak to a specific cultural group.

ALL OF THE ABOVE is often done in co-creative processes with local musicians, artists, designers, architects, performers, theaters, government ministries and more
