Currently IVI is developing campaigns that make the impact of these diseases relatable to those outside of the scientific community. In July, IVI launched the video campaign Choose Your World, which shows what a significant impact small do- nations can make. The three-minute video depicts the cut- ting-edge research, development and vetting of new vaccines and vaccine delivery to at-risk regions. At the end of October, IVI created Deadly Beauty, a cam- paign in which models are adorned with what look like works of art but are actually the cellular images of eight neglected diseases. Locals and expats in Seoul participated via in-kind donations of time and energy. A third campaign geared toward the Korean population is called KIKI (Kids Helping Kids). This campaign educates children on the fun aspects of science and the rewards of charitable giving. Kits have been created in Korea that consist of a “Glow-Germ” experiment, which allow children to to see “germs” on their hands through a solution and light. The kits also include the campaign’s mascot, Sam the Bear, an edu- cational coloring book and a piggy bank to encourage kids to save money and donate to charity. The kits are currently being passed out in classrooms throughout the country. “If we can teach people what these diseases are, they can begin to understand the impact they can have on developing countries,” Thomas said. “It’s not only through monetary do- nations, but through creating awareness on any level, from volunteering in this campaign to simply clicking a button to share it on Facebook, we can raise awareness for something that really does matter.” MorE Info j IVI website: www.ivi.int Deadly Beauty campaign: www.facebook.com/events/726282870795781 ‘IN THE DEVELOPED wOrLD, MANy HAVE FOrGOTTEN THE DAyS wHEN wHOOPING COuGH, POLIO AND MEASLES wErE DEADLy ILLNESSES.
