Words hurt, even if it’s just online. Cyberbully is a grave matter all over the world, even so in Bangladesh where 47% of the nation’s growing online culture has faced some form of cyberbullying. To address this issue, we’ve created an anti-cyberbullying campaign for Grameen Phone/Telenor, the largest mobile operator in Bangladesh. Grameen Phone’s massive customer base and presence as a trustworthy national brand makes them perfect for this campaign to be highly impactful. Often, online forms of violence are not considered consequential or problematic, leaving many anti-cyberbullying messages to be ineffective. Our campaign addresses this head on by drawing shocking parallels between cyberbullying and physical torture. The graphic depiction of online violence in such visceral fashion instantly draws attention to the issue while also establishing a coherent message – cyber violence is just as real as any other kind. Grameen Phone’s campaign is the first step to combating this issue. Further collaborations with Bangladesh’s national ITC division are underway to take this campaign forward and create a hotline to address cyberbullying.

According to recent reports, a divorce takes place every hour in Dhaka city. In the last decade, the divorce rate has increased by a massive 34% throughout the country, according to the Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS). Some of the most common reasons stem from an inability to maintaining a conjugal life, drug addiction, extra marital affairs, incurable diseases, physical assault, dowry, premature marriage and infertility. Yet age old notions about divorce exist widely and very often women, especially, are stigmatised, even today. Somehow, the label of ‘divorcee’ is a social red flag, a mark one can’t remove. Breaking the taboo of divorce is essential, but so is giving hope and highlighting the importance of self love. It’s impossible to move forward, fight social stigmas or face scrutiny if we can’t at first love ourselves. Here, we celebrate self love on Valentines Day. The hardest and the most rewarding form of affection is what we show ourselves. GrameenPhone is the largest telecom company in Bangladesh and growing every day. It’s campaigns impact millions, creating a natural social responsibility. This particular campaign has struck a chord with many. It is important to remember that: life will often be unkind to us, so being kind to ourselves is the least one can do.

A win is only a win when you've experienced loss. The Bangladesh Premiere League (BPL) is one of the most exciting sporting events of the nation with fans passionately rooting for their teams to win. When most BPL campaigns for teams focus on winning, the "Khulna Titans- Beyond Winning" campaign looks at a more vulnerable side to competitive sports. Behind every win there are countless losses. Failures, hardships and unimaginable odds shape us into the heroes we have the potential to be. Instead of a video solely promoting the joy and celebration of winning, we explore the vulnerability of failing, the power of hope in times of despair. The campaign portrays an honest look at the importance of failure by exploring the insecurities and hardships a cricketer faces in training. The true spirit of cricket is much larger than winning, it’s about hope and perseverance.Everyone has the capacity to be a winner. Only through indomitable will and undying effort they can conquer what is deemed hopeless and unattainable. In the cutthroat world of Bangladeshi cricket where everyone is determined to win, the message of growth through hardship is a phenomenal one - an intimate yet bold statement.

One of the challenges we face is that our employees have a lot of difficulty explaining what we do to their friends and loved ones without having them fall asleep mid-explanation. So we decided to explain what we do by using physical representation of our software (flying robots from the future with laser scanners and stuff).

What’s the best wedding gift a parent can give? BRAC, the world’s largest NGO, celebrates 16 Days of Activism - and one of its targets is raising awareness about domestic violence. A Bengali wedding is a joyous occasion, rich in culture and festivities - but what follows isn’t always happily ever after. Seven out of ten women face violence at the hands of their husbands, at least once. What can make matters worse is not having one’s family’s support in such times. A common tradition in South Asian weddings is to see the ceremony as a “send off” for the bride, now considered part of a whole new family. The biggest gift that a parent can give their daughters on their wedding day is thus, simply reassurance - knowing there’s always a home to come back to, a safe space to share one’s life. Another goal of BRAC’s campaign is also redefining masculinity. With media rampantly depicting toxic masculinity, or pointing fingers at it, it is refreshing to have positive aspirational portrayals of male figures - like a father lovingly looking out for his daughter. A little compassion and support goes a long way in changing lives. Sometimes, it’s the best possible gift we can give to our loved ones.
