Resumen

El objetivo es conocer la opinión de los universitarios (N=296) sobre las estrategias audiovisuales más impactantes para diseñar futuras campañas publicitarias para la concienciación medioambiental. La metodología es empírica, no experimental de tipo descriptivo, con carácter exploratorio y analítico, centrada en analizar la opinión de los encuestados sobre: los canales de comunicación preferidos para transmitir mensajes proambientales, los formatos audiovisuales que despiertan su atención, la narrativa más persuasiva, los mensajes más impactantes y los personajes que les ofrecen mayor credibilidad para incorporar en campañas proambientales. Los resultados reflejan que la audiencia juvenil prioriza los medios sociales; las imágenes reales; las narrativas de tipo informativo y testimonial; los mensajes catastrofistas, esperanzadores y movilizadores; y prima la naturaleza como protagonista de los relatos. En conclusión, estas campañas deben aprovechar el potencial de las redes sociales y seleccionar las estrategias audiovisuales más idóneas para garantizar su impacto y propiciar el cambio hacia acciones ecosostenibles.
