01. Challenge
The challenge was to change the negative perception of Kenya and put it back on the map by portraying it as a country on the move – a great nation that is unified, moving with the times and open for business.
My role, along with the support of the creative director and team, was direction of the visual language of the campaign in a way that resonated locally as well as internationally.
