Campaign idea

The "Leading Hands" campaign led by the Turkish women's volleyball team aims to empower young girls and increase their participation in sports through innovative, interactive methods. The creative idea centers on using unexpected-looking hand-shaped robots, smart mirrors and the most rising social media channel to engage and motivate young girls in a personal, tangible way.

The big idea of the campaign is to use innovative, interactive technologies symbolized by hands - a key element in volleyball - to LITERALLY move young girls to participate in sports. This concept is brought to life through three primary mediums:

Unusual-looking mechanic talking hands in schools;

Smart Mirrors;

and Tik-Tok comment sections.

To captivate the target audience of young girls, these elements combine the appeal of unusual, innovative technology, personal interaction, and the influential power of stories of successful role models, directly addressing the interests and emotional needs of the audience while promoting sports as a means for empowerment, self-expression and emotional wellbeing.
