The Monkeys Sydney, Ogilvy Singapore Take Home Grand Prix Glory at Cannes Lions 2024

Ogilvy Singapore claimed the Grand Prix in the Glass: The Lion for Change category for their impactful campaign for Vaseline Pro Derma Transition Body Lotion, the first product designed for transgender women.

Developed in collaboration with Thailand's transgender community, the lotion addresses skin challenges experienced during and after transitioning, with ingredients that combat the side effects of hormone therapy.

Jury President Cindy Gallop praised the campaign for its holistic approach to gender equality and social change, calling it an easy unanimous decision to award Vaseline the Glass Grand Prix. David Dahan of Ogilvy Singapore expressed immense pride in bringing Singapore's first Grand Prix home.

Revolver (Australia): One of five Palme d'Or special awards.
