Background

Vietnamese culture imprints these beautiful words in mind of girls: be soft, step back, sacrifice – which will then become stereotyped-burdens she carries with her destiny: a girl taught to be soft would struggle to raise her voice for what she believes; a girl taught to step back would struggle to step up fighting for what she deserves; a girl taught to sacrifice would put others’ happiness against her own. And those daughters would grow up, earning respect through loving, caring for others – instead of herself. Campaign objectives 1- Relaunch Biti’s for women product lines for women from childhood to adulthood. 2- Enhance the brand meaningfulness through a movement Embracing Vietnamese Girls’ destiny changing steps
