The Challenge
The Diversity Works Challenge is an initiative from SBS Media designed to encourage the Australian advertising industry to think with diversity and to reflect the real Australia in their marketing campaigns.
The Winning Pitch
SBS is proud to announce Surf Life Saving Australia as the winner of the 2017 Diversity Works Challenge, with their campaign concept developed by KWP! in Adelaide.
