Description
For Pride Month, Huskies saw an opportunity to align the mnemonic for remembering the rainbow with its international symbolic meaning - respect and equality. The project reinvents the old mnemonic about the rainbow colours. The well-known ‘Roy G Biv’ or ‘Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain’ (which hasn’t been updated since its invention in 1869) has been given a modern transformation with a new positive message: “Respect Others. You Grow By Including Variety”. The campaign is a collaborative effort between teachers and schools and the idea behind it is to cultivate tolerance, open-mindedness and respect among young children.
This professional campaign titled 'Remember the Rainbow' was published in Ireland in June, 2020. It was created for the brand: Pride Month, by ad agency: In the Company of Huskies. This Integrated medium campaign is related to the Public Interest industry and contains 1 media asset. It was submitted over 4 years ago.
