For assignment 2a we were required to meet as a group and discuss post consumerism. We all completed individual research and brought to the table our findings as well as some images we had collected. We began discussing what we thought the profile of a post consumer was and collectively decided that is most probably someone 30+ who is established and therefore has had the opportunity to buy goods in excess. However they have now adopted non-material values and have become part of 'a growing trend of ethical consumers.' They buy products based on their values, perhaps more willing to purchase used products, aware of fair trade and the importance of recycling. We put our thoughts down in the form of a poster which will be used to spark some ideas for the next part of the assignment.
