Overview

Execution

The launching day was April 2nd – World Autism Day. The top 3 Romanian TV stations, some of the most important radio stations and newspapers got involved. They repeated part of their usual message. The explanation was delivered after the repetition. The next day social media and online went crazy: the campaign message became the most talked-about subject on Facebook, blogs and news feeds. The following days, the message was taken further by 7 major football teams who played live on TV, music bands and famous actresses; even a chopper academy supported our campaign.
