Write a short summary of what happens in the radio or audio work.
"Birds Will Be Back" is part of a vast integrated campaign on reviving Kuyucuk Lake which was known as bird paradise. The work is a 24 hour audio track of birds, to be aired through mosques of Kuyucuk village, as a harbinger of good days for the inhabitants. The audio track imitates a day of Kuyucuk in the past like 233 bird species never left. Everything you hear in the audio track is based on the sounds of those specific 233 birds and their daily routines. With this 24 hour long realistic audio track, village with 284 inhabitants experienced a full day, like the birds never left. And hope is raised through whole country with a TV spot based on this project.

Please tell us how the brand purpose inspired the work
Turkey is becoming water poor. As hand washing and pre-rinsing the dishes causes drastic amount of water waste, we have chosen "water preservation" as our core purpose and encouraged people to use dishwashers with our detergent. To make the situation more visible and dramatic we established our communication strategy based on dried up lakes of Turkey. There was a great opportunity for us in this perspective. With a year without pre-rinsing or hand washing it was possible to save water equals to a mid-size lake. As an activist detergent brand, who communicates through dried up lakes for two years, we started a mobilization to save Kuyucuk Lake and supplied life water to the lake. We took our communication with our customers into another level. With “Birds Will Be Back” project, we shared the love of the locals on the lake and showed how important the lake for our future.
