Begging is an act... Don't React.
Thousands of women and children are trafficked into Saudi Arabia every year to become part of organized groups that compromise the safety and security of the country. In 2015, beggars managed to trick locals into giving them around 700 million Saudi Riyals. Alwaleed Philanthropies wanted to raise awareness about fake panhandling activities that negatively impact the community in order to direct the donations to the right channels so that they reach people who are truly in need.
Experience design
We wanted to raise awareness on the tricks and the scale of the problem, direct these donations to official & trust-worthy charities, and deliver the message in a new, interactive method to increase word-of-mouth and awareness.
We wanted an innovative approach to raise awareness on the issue of begging and send through our messages to the audience, so we introduced the first anti-begging machine that simulates the begging experience and reveals the tricks of the beggars.
Regional and local news outlets covered the story, and popular social media influencers supported the cause.
