CHANGE works hard everyday so that every Vietnamese can listen, understand and join hands to take actions, reducing the demand for illegal wildlife products, putting an end to these meaningless, heartrending killings and improving Vietnam’s image and credibility among the international community.
Despite efforts in conservation and various countermeasures against poaching, the demand for wildlife products in some countries are contributing to the growth of illegal wildlife trade, exacerbating the global wildlife crisis. Vietnam is one of the world’s largest markets and transit points for wildlife products, especially rhino horns, pangolin scales and ivory. Illegal wildlife trade has taken the lives of millions of wild animals every year, threatened global biodiversity and affected the livelihoods of communities that are dependent on wildlife all around the world.
The campaign featured the imagery of 3 wild animals including a rhino with a cut-off horn, a mother and her baby pangolin with their scales being peeled and the elephant with his broken tusks, all bleeding from pain, portraying their current poaching situation in the wild.
The statues of these animals were displayed to be kneeling in front of Buddha statue, praying for an ease to their continuous suffering as illegal wildlife poaching has reached an alarming rate, therefore calling upon the public to reduce the demands for endangered wildlife trade and consumption.
The campaign is proud to be awarded with the Gold Awards in the Non-profit category at the Mobile Marketing Awards, Smarties 2019; Bronze Award in the PR and Outdoor category from ADSTARS 2019 in Busan, Korea; and the Most Outstanding Billboard in the Humanity & Society category, at OOH Award 2019, Vietnam.
An unique exhibition with “Buy 1 Get 15” gift boxes to capture the consumers’ attention during Tet. The purpose of the campaign is to convey the revision laws of the Criminal Code (Penal Code) 2015 to the public, which stipulates that the trading, transporting or consuming of endangered wildlife products such as rhino horn, ivory, and pangolin,... can be punishable by up to 15 years in prison or 15 billion VND.
