Water is Life: The drinkable book

The drinkable book is a revolutionary and life saving idea. It filters water and teaches proper sanitation & hygiene to those in the developing world. Each book is printed in two languages on technologically advanced filter paper, capable of killing deadly waterborne diseases. Each page is coated with silver nanoparticles, whose ions actively kill diseases like cholera, typhoid and E. coli.

Once water is passed through the filter, bacteria count is reduced by over 99.99%, making the filtered water comparable to tap water in the United States of America.

The paper costs only pennies to produce, making it by far the cheapest option on the market. Each filter is capable of giving someone up to 30 days worth of clean water. And each book is capable of providing someone with clean water for up to 4 years.

Paw Justice: Animal Strike

An animal strike that changed a law. Paw Justice with the help of DDB New Zealand collaborated with Google and YouTube and blocked videos with animal content in order to make people sign a petition to force the goverment to change a law that allowed legal-highs to be tested on animals.

The insight was simple. People love to see entertaining videos of animals online. So a nationwide block of these videos would definitely spread the word.

Street posters, print ads, TVCs and billboards, where also used in the campaign, along with a website with the petition and a strike toolkit with all the files needed for the public in order to upload then to their social media profiles, YouTube channels and websites to block their own animal content.

This incredible collaboration made the Prime Minister John Key announce that there will be no further testing of legal-highs on animals in his country.

CNA: Speaking Exchange

The Speaking Exchange project is a win-win idea from FCB Brasil and the CNA language school network. It connects students who want to speak English with Americans living in retirement homes via an exclusive digital tool that uses video chat technology to bring the students face to face with Americans. The reactions as we can see on the video are heartwarming.
