"Paper Moose delivered dynamic content that felt authentic to how 14–17 year olds experience the world today”.
Fueled by the insight that 77% of young people from Year 5 to 12 want to be their own boss one day, Paper Moose developed a new brand platform - 'Be Your Own Champion' - empowering teens to explore new activities and turn their interests into achievements with the Duke of Ed.
The Duke of Ed has big ambitions to triple their registered and paid participants by 2025, so its first worldwide advertising campaign features a cast of teenagers and showcases how everyday activities can be translated into the Duke of Ed experience.
The user-generated content style is designed to fit seamlessly into social feeds.
Be Your Own Champion - social assets.
Jeremy Willmott, Paper Moose creative director, said: "The Duke of Ed is an incredible way for teens to build the skills they'll need to succeed later on in life, so we created a platform that inspires them to give it a go."
Peter Kaye, CEO AM ESM, The Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award - Australia, said: “We want to show young Australians everywhere that the Award showcases an incredibly diverse set of experiences, with everyone welcome.
"Paper Moose delivered dynamic content that felt authentic to how 14–17 year olds experience the world today”.
The campaign is live online across digital and social.
