UNEP: Forced Migration

Integrated
UNEP;WCCB

Wildlife trafficking is a direct and a serious threat to our environment. It has led to extinction of birds and animals. It’s a rising billion-dollar industry operating undercover. Trafficking exists due to demand for pets, body parts and illegal medicinal purposes. To sensitize all about this crime, we drew inspiration from the journeys and drew a parallel to the experiences of in-flight passengers. The Idea: While most wild animals migrate naturally, some are forced to migrate. Each ad featured an animal in distress known to be smuggled out of India as often reported in news. Since smuggling live animals through airports fetch trafficker’s high prices, airports seemed like the most effective touchpoints. We tied up with more than 15 airports across India and showcased creatives on OOH mediums like Airport TV screens where the ad appeared between flight timings.

Not all animals migrate by choice.

I am blue by morning. Green by noon. And grey by night. What am I? Ahem! I’m DDB & Tribal Vietnam’s new chatbot. Sure, I can do a lot more than just change background colours. I can show you our work, connect you to our social media pages and put you in touch with our Managing Director. Some may even say I have a lot of power in my hands. Speaking of hands, I don’t have any. But I am armed with a lot of pickup lines. And when I’m not busy listening to hardcore death metal, I like regaling internet strangers with tales about our agency. If you pop over looking for funny cat videos, I won’t bother saying hello. By the by, have you seen that cat doing that little cat thing on Instagram? Ha. To keep me company, check out ddbtribal.vn

SKYN Condoms: Stay and f*** at Home

Online
SKYN Condoms

In an attempt to slow the spread of COVID-19, people around the world are being urged and authorized to stay at home. In this effort to contain the virus, and to keep people safe, social distancing is presented as the best form of combat. Online, people have already rallied behind this important prevention measure in a big way, with the hashtags #staythefhome and #staythefuckhome.

Given the confusion and uncertainty in these times of imposed confinement, SKYN®, the intimacy expert, is adding valuable insights to the conversation—by presenting a more pleasurable quarantine than binge-watching series all day. SKYN® supports the social distancing movement, by using pleasure as a powerful incentive.

To share their message, SKYN® is reaching out where everyone is living, online. The brand will be publishing content featuring messages like, “Coming is always safer than going”, compelling people to ‘Stay And F*** At Home’ in order to keep everyone safer. This initiative advocates for ways to make the best of the situation and reminds us that we can turn restrictive measures into something that brings us together.

Ongoing content, like the ‘pleasure calendar’ will be posted daily over the next few weeks, to help people keep busy. SKYN® recognizes that social distancing is the only way to slow the spread of COVID-19 and is here
