The Times of India: Mask India movement
Mask India national movement for The Times of India has empowered every Indian to be a Corona warrior.
In response to the national toll of Covid – 19 positive cases, resultant deaths and an acute shortage of medical masks for medical professionals and frontline workers, India’s leading English daily, The Times of India raised a country-wide call to all Indians, to make and wear their own masks at home with their #MaskIndia movement. Conceptualized by Wunderman Thompson South Asia, the movement empowered every citizen of the country to take charge of protecting themselves, their families and communities — encouraging individual action and responsibility among Indians, getting them ready to fight the single largest fight our generation has seen, globally. The campaign also focused on proper sanitation and disposal of the masks.
Results:
– Over 100,000 inspired Indians participated with videos and selfies of their own DIY homemade masks
– #MaskIndia received commendation and vocal support from Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narenda Modi who sported different homemade ghamcha masks on several occasions during the lockdown
