Christchurch-based creative and digital agencies Not Another and Voyage have launched the Ministry of Social Development’s Love Better campaign website.
The campaign is a primary prevention initiative, aiming to equip young New Zealanders with the tools to navigate love, breakups, relationships, consent, and sexuality.
With a focus on empowering youth, the campaign addresses the highs, lows, and challenges of relationships in an engaging and relatable way.
Not Another and Voyage were chosen for their expertise in youth-focused campaigns and technical innovation. Not Another has developed multiple award-winning campaigns across New Zealand and Australia for the likes of Netsafe, The Human Rights Commission, eSafety, Tourism New Zealand and Facebook, whereas Voyage has created websites for New Zealand’s COVID-19 response, the Defence Force, and Te Pūkenga.
For the Ministry of Social Development (MSD), they combined their strengths to create a platform that speaks directly to today’s digital-savvy youth.
“By design, the website feels more like a social media platform than a traditional website,” Not Another Strategic Director Adrien Taylor says.
“It’s a dynamic digital experience where young Kiwis can learn, feel empowered, and share with their peers.”
“We knew that if this project had even a sniff of a government vibe to it, youth would immediately switch off,” Not Another Creative Director Mark Townshend adds.
“To truly connect with youth, it had to break away from conventional web design and feel as engaging as the apps and social media they use every day. We’re proud to have created something that meets that challenge.”
“Youth relationships can be intense and unpredictable,” Voyage Director Ryan O’Hara says.
“With the Love Better website, our goal is to give young New Zealanders the tools to build safe and positive relationships that will support them throughout their lives.”
“With the Ministry of Social Development, we’re very fortunate to have had a client that was very eager for us to push the boundaries and break traditional government campaign molds. They trusted us, and the result is all something we’re incredibly proud of.”
The collaboration resulted in a cutting-edge platform designed to drive real change for Kiwi youth.
“The partnership with Voyage has been awesome,” Taylor says.
“This project is a great example of a partnership being equal to more than the sum of its parts, and shows just how much Christchurch punches above its weight creatively and technically.”
