# EcoTales

EcoTales is a collaborative platform designed to spread awareness about wildlife protection and conservation. It provides users with a space to share posts, insights, and artistic creations centered on the theme of animal protection, with a special focus
on wildlife. This app allows users to collaboratively create artwork, each contributing a part to form a larger picture, thus fostering a community-driven approach to conservation. This project was done as part of the 2024SS Digital Art and Design class of BIT Beijing.

**Creators:** Renate Zhang

## Background

Animal protection encompasses various aspects, including animal rights, welfare, and wildlife conservation. EcoTales focuses on **wildlife protection**, a theme chosen to engage a broad audience in conservation efforts. With EcoTales, users can actively participate in conservation through sharing and creating, ultimately aiming to foster a community that values and works towards wildlife protection.

The name "EcoTales", not only does the Eco stand for ecologial but is a wordplay on the word tales. It draws inspiration from the mythological concept of 'Echo,' symbolizing the spread and amplification of vital messages — in this case, the call to protect our planet’s wildlife.
