Our main objective is to provide children a safer online environment by teaching them to become responsible, equipped netizens. To do this, we targetted 13-16 year olds with public Facebook accounts and made them part of a demonstration by sending them a friend request, befriending them, allowing them to interact with us then directly private messaging them to show them our online film. This showed how easy it is for potential predators to make it to their friend's list through a direct interaction with our audience.

We are usually unfazed by potential dangers until we or someone we know comes face-to-face with it. Many are blanketed by the mindset: It won’t happen to me or my loved ones. But the truth is, a lot of these threats can creep into our lives in the most innocent ways – which is exactly what we want them to feel about online predators. Project Unfriend is a demonstration of how easy it is for potential predators to befriend children online via the leading social media platform in the country, Facebook. By creating accounts, befriending teens and private messaging them to show them our video, we made them come face-to-face with the potential dangers when they're online. Project Unfriend is a campaign that empowers kids and teens to check, detect and unfriend strangers turning a simple click into a protective action. Because Facebook should be about friends for
Project Unfriend’s two target segments: • Teenagers (13-16 years old) with active and public Facebook accounts • Adults (Parents/Guardians/Teachers) According to Stairway Foundation 2015 Cybersafe Survey: 50% of children (13-16 years old) have public accounts and befriend online strangers. Utilizing Facebook, we wanted to prove how truly accessible and vulnerable they are to online child predators. This also ensured the campaign would reach those we intended to hit, allowing our very limited media budget to work optimally. We needed to make them realize that even in the seemingly harmless sphere of Facebook, real predators are lurking, hiding behind likeable personas, just waiting to be let in. But beyond just portraying the cyber world as a dark and dangerous blackhole, we also wanted them to see that they have the power to keep it an enriching, fun and safe environment for themselves.

Our films outperformed media objectives and pushed the value of our minimal resources to optimal levels. On Facebook, it delivered more than 3.5M reach for our boosted post against our 109,000 plan (Facebook Ads Manager). Combining this with organic reach, our total reach on Facebook is now at 9.5 million (Facebook Insights Dashboard). On YouTube as it garnered almost 500,000 total reach against our 13,000 plan. Also notable was the fact that it has also generated over 1M engagements (reactions, comments, shares and post clicks) from kids and adults. Furthermore, the Philippines’ Department of Education has started using our videos as part of their training program for teachers across the country on cyber safety for kids. According to the DepEd, if the trained teachers will deliver on their commitment to cascade, they will reach 800,000 teachers who in turn can reach a total potential of 26.3 million students nationwide.
