//001 The brief

The client

The Nigerian renewable space is awash with a plethora of interventions and initiatives, driven by several multilateral development organisations. Among these actors, EU continues to play the pivotal role of influencing policy initiatives, infusing investments, building capacity, enabling actors at different levels and creating impact.

The European Union delegation to Nigeria has over the years spent a considerable amount of money in Nigeria’s energy sector, most notably in renewable energy, recently committing about €150m to the sector’s development.

The challenge

Its contribution notwithstanding, EU’s participation in the sector has been down-played and under-celebrated.

Goal — Improved visibility

Goal — Rebrand

//002 Our approach

How we
tackled it.

Agency adopted the use of evidence-based outcomes of EU-supported projects and interventions, dramatized through stories of real transformation of people, communities and businesses to drive home the objectives of the campaign.

Step 1

First we identified key stakeholders

For Government and the private sector, we favoured the platforms and tools most effective in engaging them. To reach “last-mile” users — Bottom of the Pyramid Nigerians in rural and semi-urban, largely off-grid areas — we employed community and market activations as well as mass-market channels.

Step 2

We ran an integrated marketing communications campaign (ATL, BTL, Digital, Experiential, Advocacy), engaging all relevant stakeholders using mass media channels native to them.

“Expanding access to power.”

The European Union and Nigeria are connecting more rural communities to electricity through clean energy and also empowering these communities economically. Hence expanding access to POWER.
