The Context

Developed in collaboration with ACT (AIDS Committee of Toronto), this campaign reinterprets harm reduction principles through culturally relevant visuals designed for nightlife and sauna environments.

The Challenge

Institutional harm reduction messaging often fails to resonate within nightlife environments.
 

The challenge was to create culturally authentic materials while maintaining clarity, safety, and accessibility.
