Get creative for a new safety campaign!

Merge 104.8  |  04 May 2020

Oman’s Ministry of Health (MoH) is calling upon Oman’s artists and content creators to develop creative concepts for a national education and awareness campaign on COVID-19 safety.

In the ‘Your Creativity Is Your Charity’ campaign the MoH is looking for the nation’s artists, painters, musicians, graphic designers, illustrators, photographers, and videographers to create a unique piece of Coronavirus-related art which could be shared on the MoH’s official digital platforms and social media channels.

Artists and content creators wishing to submit their contributions for consideration may do so via email at [email protected].

The MoH say that all creative submissions — whether photo, video, audio, pictures, drawings, or graphic designs — should be COVID-19 awareness-related and, in the case of video submissions, should be less than two minutes in length. Contributors must also provide their full name and contact details and ensure that their submissions are sent across in high-resolution and high quality.

In terms of awareness-related messaging, the MoH further stated that artwork submissions should focus on how to follow directives, stay healthy, and use protective measures against COVID-19 and, also, should raise awareness on bad habits that can contribute towards the spread of COVID-19 in our communities.

The MoH will then choose the most creative submission to be shared across all their digital social media platforms, with credit to the artist and their work, and have ensured prospective contributors that all copyrights for their work will be protected.
