Boranka campaign
ZAGREB, Oct 20 (Hina) – The “Boranka” campaign, which involved tens of thousands of people in efforts to reforest Dalmatia last year, has won EuroEffie, a prestigious European marketing performance award.
Introduced in 1996, the Effie Awards Europe were the first pan-European marketing communications awards to be judged on the basis of effectiveness. The 2019 Effie Europe winners were announced in Brussels on 15 October.
The Zageb-based PR agency Ilago Ogilvy has designed and implemented the marketing campaign for the Boranka campaign, launched by the Scout Alliance of Croatia.
