The campaign done in collaboration with the Sri Lanka Cancer Society and creative agency Loops integrated, was a unique campaign that tapped into local insights to drive awareness and education about breast cancer and the importance of self-examination.

The campaign combined physical and digital elements to drive this education and awareness by leveraging the cultural practice of Sri Lankan women checking clay pots (Walan) for imperfections by which, the campaign effectively communicated the importance of self-examination in a culturally sensitive manner.

The campaign addressed the hesitations Sri Lankan women have regarding regular checkups due to taboos, misconceptions about pain, and costs.

Tapping into potent local insight, AIA rolled out an initiative to deter pilgrims from taking risks in the water. By using a traditional Buddhist ‘wish flag’ ‘Prarthana Kodiya’ with the message ‘May the devotees not get into unsafe waters’, AIA successfully conveyed the importance of safety.

The campaign’s distribution of wish flags at strategic locations not only delivered the message effectively but also left a memorable impression on the audience, encouraging safe practices during the pilgrimage.
