Description

A set of integrated actions was designed to obtain the maximum effectiveness in the shortest possible time. The goal: to collect the maximum number of signatures. People should sign a letter demanding Nigeria’s Government to stop the execution. Signatures would be handed to Nigeria’s Ambassador in Madrid.We developed other forms of action to impact opinion leaders and the mass media. The underlined conditions were the fact of a woman being involved and the way she was going to be executed.

The case was approached based on synergy between the communication on-off and taking maximum advantage of the different tools.

Outcome

In just 20 days we received (cumulative) more than 600,000 Internet signatures, more than 60,000 signatures through letters and fax and more than 40,000 calls Amnesty International Spain also obtained 35% more subscriptions in this period compared to the previous year and a database of 200,000 people who formally asked to receive information on Amnesty International. But the definitive result, and the one that make us feel really so proud, is that SAFIYA HAS BEEN SAVED.This campaign won the 2002 Diamond Echo (Most Outstanding in All Categories) at the DMA Echo Awards in San Francisco (USA).
