I. Theme/Opportunity
World Vision Romania is a Christian humanitarian organization dedicated to working with
children, families, and their communities. World Vision Romania runs programs for emergency
humanitarian intervention, development and support of socially disadvantaged people.
In Romania, the average rate of infant mortality (children under 5) is twice as high as in the rest
of European Union. What is sad, is that most of the deaths of children aged up to five could be
prevented by simple and rather inexpensive procedures: medical assistance at birth, early
treatment for children’s diseases and healthy nutrition. Moreover, because of poverty and lack
of information, anemia is one of the most common problems for both pregnant women and
children under two years old in rural underprivileged areas and rickets and dystrophy are
alarming spread. This is more than just a problem facing Romania. It’s a “silent” emergency.
And it is, we believe, the greatest child rights violation of our time.
That is why World Vision Romania has launched its „Child and mother health and nutrition“
program, a commitment to reduce infant mortality and to improve the health and the nutrition
of mothers and babies under two in rural underprivileged areas.
In support of this initiative, the “Good Mothers, Healthy Babies” campaign aims to draw
people`s attention towards the suffering babies and children in underprivileged rural areas, to
raise the awareness on the health and nutrition problems of mothers and children in rural areas
and of course, to make people get involved and to donate.
2. II. Research
Conducting interviews with mothers and doctors in poor rural areas
Watching mothers` discussions on specialised blogs and forums;
Study on health and nutrition of mother and infant in rural areas conducted by World
Vision Romania in July, 2011;
The nutritional status of pregnant woman and children under five conducted by IOMC,
Unicef and Health Ministry;
Studies, statistics (statistic data released by Romanian Neonatology Associations and
National Institute of Statistics
Conclusions:
• Anemia is one of the most common problems for both pregnant women and children under
two years old.
• Ensuring a healthy nutrition for babies in the rural areas is a problem linked to education:
breastfeeding is discontinued before 6 months in more than 55% of cases; food diversification
is chaotic with potential serious consequences for the life and development of the child;
• Mothers, especially the ones in rural underprivileged areas, don`t receive proper advice on
how to take care of their children and to recognize the first signs of illness;
III. Planning

4. IV. Implementation
Steps of the campaign
1. Prelaunch
Involving key opinion leaders: from the beginning we knew we
needed expert and celebrity endorsement to help us in
communicating the messages of the campaign with minimum costs.
Hence, we co-opted Doctor Ana Culcer, Neonatology Specialist and
chief of the Neonatology Section of the University Hospital in
Bucharest, with more than 40 years’ experience in neonatology, to
endorse and raise credibility towards World Vision message. Also we
co-opted Daniela Nane, a famous actress, to help us to raise the
awareness on World Vision message and “Good Mothers, Healthy
Babies” campaign;
Documentary movie: we have realised a video material, presenting
the cruel reality of children and mothers in rural underprivileged
areas, including declarations of mothers and doctors in these communities.
2. Launch
The official launch of the campaign - press event, May 19,
2011. In order to communicate the problems linked to
mother and child health in rural areas and highlight the
need for help, we have organized a press event with the
theme “The health of the mother and the child”. The event
was attended by journalists from general, health, lifestyle,
medical and parents publications. Within the conference
was presented for the first time the documentary movie
and was very well perceived.
3. On-going communication, special projects;
We created and implemented an editorial strategy including
press releases, website copy, Facebook posts, interviews with
KOLs involved in the campaign and long issue-based articles.
Successive communication stages, including relevant statistic
data about the health and nutrition problems of mothers and
babies in rural areas. The messages were designed to sensitise
5. the target, to raise their receptivity and their willingness to donate.
Involvement program designed for bloggers, having the theme “The oldest memory” – the
concept through which we have communicated the link
between the health of a child and his beautiful memories.
Three leaders of the Romanian blogosphere (Cristian China,
Simona Tache and Miruna Siminel) were invited to write
about their own first memory, to shortly present the
campaign and its call to action and to transfer the topic to
other bloggers. After one week, ten other bloggers have
taken over the subject on their blogs.
Press release announcing the Goodness Bracelet, a facilitator of the donations.
Getting the support of other TV celebrities, key opinion leaders and involving them directly
in the communication process: Simona Bălănescu (the producer of the “Live healthy” show
on Antena 2), Melania Medeleanu (TV celebrity involved in social projects for helping
children) and Magda Vasiliu (TV celebrity having a positive capital image). Starting
September 1st, for two weeks, all of them (including the actress Daniel Nane) have posted
on their Facebook accounts support messages for the campaign, generating conversations
on the theme and thus raising the awareness of the campaign.
