In 2010, the official year of biodiversity, The European Union launched the campaign We are all in this together, aimed at raising awareness of the world’s complex ecosystem among leaders and citizens. A teaser campaign involved spraying sentences and images under trees. Next we created an artwork with different species and animals that filled the Nieuwmarkt in Amsterdam. A fake crime scene was created, and schoolchildren were handed little templates of animals and invited to draw their own images with chalk. The event attracted a lot of press and was later repeated in different European cities. Ultimately, the whole Biodiversity campaign was honoured with the European Excellence Award.
