GRAND OGILVY WINNER
The Grand Ogilvy Award-winning campaign, “Not A Gun,” by Courageous Conversation Global Foundation (CCGF) and Goodby Silverstein & Partners, utilized their platform to shed light on racial profiling by law enforcement and encouraged the public to sign their petition calling for mandatory de-escalation and implicit bias training for police departments.
