Insight
Increasingly, it is necessary to do more to society and to the development of the country, demanding concrete and relevant materials for the whole society.
Itau, for believing in education as the changing power of the country, started a huge incentive movement in 2012 for reading. In 2013, the focus was on how this action could happen: everywhere and every time, how it could become a routine. The following year, Itau presented the reasons that reading was so important, showing everybody the benefits provided by the development of children's learning.
For the 2015 campaign, the insight was that the world can change when you choose to change your world and reading for a child can change the world.
Strategy
The strategy used in this campaign was to give adults responsibility for the growth and development of their children. Making common adults in heroes bringing their children playfully closer to them, strengthening their affective linking.
In the main film agency DPZ&T portrayed the adult as a hero, in the other parts of the campaign, it showed them as common people, who have been reading for their children.
Through this set (playful +reality), it could inspire and motivate more people, showing them the power of reading. Reading to a child is a simple action that contributes for the development of learning, helping them to express themselves and transmits values for their growth.
Itau invests in actions like this one, believing in education as the changing power of this country.
