Description
The Incomplete Anthem campaign by EBM turned Pakistan’s Independence Day into a moment of national reflection, by using disruption to highlight the country’s literacy crisis. The campaign’s core idea was to remove every few lines of the national anthem to represent the one in four children who can’t read. The results were remarkable with donations pouring in, enrollment of kids in schools surging and EBM scoring high in brand perception across the board.
