Amy Rodgers, head of content, WARC Creative, said the WARC Media 100 serves as inspiration on how a campaign’s use of media can impact brand success and society.
"A number of this year’s top campaigns leveraged partnerships to engage and amplify its impact with audiences."
"Second place campaign, ‘Pre Loved Island’, partnered with UK TV show Love Island to bring second hand clothes into the mainstream, while Argentine NGO Alma worked with footballer Leonardo Sigali to raise awareness for Alzheimer’s disease. Dove’s ‘#TurnYourBack’ also partnered with 68 influencers, including Gabrielle Union, to drive its message of body positivity further."
This comes after Australia placed #6 in WARC’s Creative 100 rankings last week.
The ‘most creative’ local campaign was The First Digital Nation for the Government of Tuvalu via The Monkeys Sydney, which placed fifth.
