Introduction
With evolving trends and enhanced focus on sustainable living, individuals and
organisations are adopting positive changes to create a better environment for
all. By following those trends, organisations worldwide are becoming innovative
with their social contributions and marketing initiatives, as illustrated in the
Amnesty International (AI) campaign for women’s rights in 2014. According to
Circul8 (2022, p.1), the AI launched its campaign in Australia by taking over
Tinder as the communication source to highlight the issue of forced marriages
with the headline, “Not all women have the same choices, you do.” This
campaign captured the attention of Tinder users and other social platforms
such as Facebook and Twitter, as it portrayed the challenges women face in
developing regions, where they are oppressed and have limited rights to make
decisions about their lives.
Bright yellow posters, quizzes, and sharing facts make the campaign more
prominent among Tinder users to take action accordingly. Henceforth, the
campaign’s success depends on engagement tactics and artifacts, such as
clicking money in the quiz; it opens a new page highlighting the ratio of girls
sold in Pakistan. Consequently, this campaign contributes to the wellness of
society by highlighting the social issues and making the audience aware of the
inequalities women face. By considering the success of the Amnesty
International Campaign on Tinder, the research critically investigates the
communication engagement strategies based on three-tier of engagement, the
communication artifacts involved, and the re ective thoughts to understand
the engagement philosophy.
themes to engage the public with the social cause and encourage them to take
immediate action.
The Aim, Target Audience, and Actors of Community Engagement
By considering the Tinder campaign, Amnesty International targets the youth
from Australia to engage in initiatives taken by the organisation to tackle the
issues with women in developing countries. This campaign aims to provide
value to oppressed women worldwide who are not allowed to make decisions.
With this, the involved stakeholders are the non-pro t organisation, Australian
youth, women, and the overall community to engage on a single platform to
make this world better for women.
Problem Addressed in Campaign and Outcomes
Representing the headlines and facts from Afghanistan, Pakistan, Saudi
Arabia, Mexico, and other regions, the brand employed a “digital interactive
engagement tool” to attract the attention of a youth-based audience to
Amnesty International’s work on women’s rights. As per Circul8 (2022, p.1),
International Women’s Day served as the campaign’s focal point, and the Tinder
photographs that Amnesty released were responsible for bringing visitors to
the website for the make a choice campaign. The website gathered data,
1
including email addresses, and interested site visitors were approached to see
if they would be willing to help Amnesty International’s work in human rights.
Relationship between Actors and Campaign
Tinder has joined Amnesty International to raise awareness about the
importance of gender equality. Also, Australian app users are encouraged to
show their support for the cause by changing their pro le pictures to those
from an Amnesty campaign. These messages contain a link that directs users
to the website makethechoice.com.au. Users are also encouraged to support
the campaign by including the phrase “Amnesty International stands up for
women’s rights; will you?” in their pro le’s “About Me” section. By illustrating
the relationship between actors and the campaign, the Tinder director
expressed his hope that the alliance would bring more attention to the issue of
violence against women in places like Papua New Guinea, where 90% of women
in the Highlands have experienced sexual assault or harassment. He also cited
a poll conducted by Global Rights that found that an estimated 87 per cent of
Afghan women have been subjected to physical, sexual, or psychological
assault and forced marriage at some point in their lives (Easter 2014, p.1). With
constant awareness, the campaign increased the number of people who
supported the campaign, and then Amnesty International worked with the
actors to handle this social issue.
Quality of Engagement –Three Tiers of Measurement
2
Considering the engagement quality, the campaign is elaborated based on the
three-tier measurement. Johnston and Taylor (2018, p.9) indicated that to
create an impact with the engaging campaign, marketers need to move from
the lowest tier to the third one to create an impact with the launched message.
Tier 1. With the focus on the Tinder takeover campaign, Amnesty International
directly interacted with the Australian youth on social platforms, speci cally on
Tinder, and generated traf c from Twitter and Facebook. In the initial stage, the
brand attracted users with the yellow tagline and quizzes clicked to engage
with this campaign. In that case, the campaign successfully built awareness
and created an impression on the focused stakeholders.
Tier 2. In the second phase, AI showed the creative side of a campaign by
encouraging actors to take sides between love and money, changing their
3
displays, clicking the links provided, and reposting those links in the about me
section to support the cause for women’s rights. With this, the campaign
by participating in the initiatives for women’s rights. The idea behind the
7
campaign is perfectly depicted with communication artifacts, engaging
content, and touchpoints. With the focus on interactivity and exchange,
artifacts back this campaign and engage users to respond to this case to create
value for women in highlighted regions. With deliberative engagement, digital
posters, taglines to help women, facts about Afghanistan and other countries,
8
and a quiz pop-up are used to engage them with the campaign that leads to the
exchange of information and bene ts the non-pro t organisation to take action
immediately.
Section 3: Re ective Thoughts
By re ecting on Tinder’s idea of taking over, Amnesty International is innovative
in creating extensive appeal for the community cause. This campaign focuses
on identifying Tinder’s marketing potential, which is enormous and untapped
because it allows interaction with a demographic that any organisation rarely
reaches. Focusing on engagement themes, Johnston and Taylor (2018, p.4)
discovered various themes that interrelate with the idea of this campaign. The
corresponding campaign aligns with the social-relational and interaction-
exchange themes because of its focus on creating awareness about the social
problem and encouraging the young users on Tinder to actively promote gender
equality.
The new ideas I explored with the analysis that the creative agency sets the
example by utilising the dating platform for social awareness. Zhou et al. (102)
indicated that digital engagement creates value for the organisation with
9
persuasive messages and taglines. It is identi ed in this campaign that AI
focuses on user-generated content and storytelling by sharing facts, taglines,
and attractive colours and engaging quizzes on digital platforms to engage with
users. With this, the impact of the utilised artefacts and content ideas in the
