A window of opportunity • Child malnutrition is on the political agenda • Child malnutrition is a compelling and engaging cause • International campaigns dedicated to hunger already launched by WFP, FAO, MSF… • A common international ACF strategy, core messages and goals • Half a million active supporters worldwide • Centralized online tools and social media give us the opportunity to reach new markets and new donors at a low cost

FAO led campaign where 900,000+ people have signed an online petition calling for action on ending hunger. MSF & VII Photo developed Starved for Attention, a multimedia campaign exposing the crisis of childhood malnutrition.
Why an International Campaign? To meet the goals articulated in the ACF International Strategic Plan 2015 To improve marketing cost-effectiveness by maximizing potential of underdeveloped markets and reaching new territories To help ACF reclaim nutrition as its core issue
Why an International Campaign?To improve marketing cost-effectiveness by maximizing potential of underdeveloped markets and reaching new territories • Sharing costs allow us to build a fundraising campaign that we could not do at the HQ level • Centralized team of experts benefits the whole network • Coherent communication: a unique brand will enable us to improve our notoriety • An interactive media strategy designed to reach new markets in a cost effective way • Participation of global corporate partners greatly extends ACF market penetration within existing and new territories
