This document outlines a social marketing campaign to stop school violence in Vietnam. The campaign aims to raise awareness among students aged 11-18 that they could be the next victims of school violence if they do not take action. It uses ambient advertising and PR articles to initially get students' attention. An integrated media campaign then encourages students to get involved through a website, celebrity endorsements, TV/print ads, and a musical event. The goal is to turn student interest into a united effort through interactive activities to stop school violence.
3. Background
Current situation
Violence in schools is becoming a common occurrence in
Vietnam, resulting in mental and physical damages for its
victims in long term.
The current countermeasure is expelling these gangs from
school, which is not effective since they can always come
back to bully their old fellow students; and which can push
them to criminal life, where there is no education and
future.
Challenge
The common reaction of people is just keeping silent and stay
away from school violence, which accidentally encourages its
increase.
Campaign objective
Alert people from the fact and incorporate these individuals into
an integrated strength to stop the violence.
