Vietnam – The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) is promoting its nutrition programs in Vietnam through the ‘Malnutrition Plates’ campaign.
The campaign, in collaboration with Dentsu Vietnam, highlights porcelain brand Minh Long’s collection of ceramic plates as part of the advocacy. ‘Malnutrition Plates’ aims to use everyday tableware as symbols to make the overlooked malnutrition issue visible.
With the objective of raising funds for UNICEF’s nutrition programs, the campaign engages audiences through impactful designs on tableware while unveiling relatable statistics about the issue.
Minh Long’s plates are available for purchase at its official website, e-commerce platforms, and some retail outlets in Vietnam. Proceeds from the sales will support UNICEF’s meal provision, healthcare worker trainings, and family assistance.
The campaign includes social media activations, influencer endorsements, events, and storytelling.
“With Malnutrition Plates, we wanted to ignite the power of artistic storytelling while combining the unique synergies between design, data, and purpose to transform a traditionally static product and abstract data into an impactful awareness tool that can create both a cultural and a social force for good in Vietnam. We are grateful to be able to take our innovation to drive tangible support for UNICEF’s nutrition program with this campaign, especially with malnutrition being widespread problem for so many children in Vietnam,” Livio Grossi, executive creative director of Dentsu Redder, commented.
