🌎🌿🤲 Today, as we celebrate #EarthDay, we reflect on our commitment to sustainability and climate action. Through our partnership with @undp, we’ve forged a powerful alliance aimed at driving impactful environmental initiatives worldwide. Central to this collaboration is the Climate Communications Taskforce (CCT), a unique coalition of ICCO members from around the globe. Established following our official partnership with UNDP in November 2023, the CCT leverages #PR strategy, messaging, and earned media to amplify UNDP’s climate campaigns. One of our inaugural initiatives, #WeatherKids, has reached audiences in over 80 markets, inspiring action and raising awareness about environmental challenges. Integral to our efforts are the Activation Partners (APs) and @amecmeasurement, who play a crucial role in advising, activating earned media in their specialised markets, and providing essential measurement and monitoring data.

The campaign aimed to secure tier 1 press coverage in partner markets and encourage adults to pledge commitment to changing habits for the well-being of children. Activista, a purpose-driven innovative agency, conceived the idea. Despite the absence of a dedicated #PR budget, the international PR community responded fervently, showcasing remarkable creativity and commitment. Through strategic planning and execution led by ICCO’s Climate Communications Taskforce (CCT), in tandem with the dedication of 35 Activation Partners (APs), the campaign has garnered widespread attention and galvanised action on a global scale. This collaborative endeavor marks a historic milestone in the fight for environmental sustainability, highlighting the indispensable role of PR in shaping the discourse on #ClimateAction and effecting positive change worldwide.
