MUMBAI: OgilvyOne Worldwide has created a new twitter campaign aimed at raising awareness for the growing problem of child labour. Launched by Reliance General Insurance and children's rights NGO Child Rights and You (CRY), the campaign is titled as #DONT_EMPLOY_LITTLE_ONES.
Attracting global attention, the campaign urges twitter users to tweet whatever they ordinarily would, but using only all caps and hence avoiding the usage of 'little ones'.
Burzin Mehta, Group Creative Director, OgilvyOne said, "We are becoming increasingly immune to an issue that surrounds us all the time. Whether it's a child who serves us tea at a tapri stall or delivers our daily newspaper. The ask of us was to raise awareness around the problem and we felt this very simple thought could probably do more. By getting people to engage with the message, it turns every tweet in all caps into an active statement of intent against child labour."
