Cultural/Context information for the jury
The parallels between the biodiversity of the planet and its cultural diversity are very clear. Our ethnodiversity, our ethnosphere, must also be protected. Peoples with unique cultural identities need to be respected, cherished and protected. To secure the future of indigenous people and their rights, we need to share their story with the world.
The challenge was to help preserve the depleting wealth of indigenous cultures and isolated tribal communities on planet earth.
The objective was to create sharable content inviting the world to engage with and share the life's work of legendary photographer Jimmy Nelson, who has traveled to the farthest corners of the world, to document the diverse culture and communities of over 36 isolated indigenous tribes, over the last 30 years.
The campaign had to engage, activate and motivate millions to join the fight for the preservation of cultural identity across the world.
