Here are the top performers at the fourth AdForum PHNX Awards, dedicated this year to the theme of PEACE.
Portuguese agency FCB Lisboa won the special GRAND PRIX FOR PEACE at the 2023 PHNX Awards with the “Portuguese (Re)constitution”. To mark the anniversary of the Carnation Revolution, artists used the blue pencils favoured by censors to re-write the former fascist constitution with poems and illustrations celebrating freedom. The resulting manifesto also won the Print Grand Prix.
Ogilvy Honduras won both the Strategy & Technique and the Good Causes Grand Prix with “Morning After Island”. To protest a ban on emergency contraception pills, an island was created in international waters where Honduran women could take the medication legally – and protest against the ban.
AdForum launched the PHNX Awards in the heart of lockdown in 2020 to celebrate the resilience of creativity. It has lived on as one of the most unusual shows in the awards landscape. Its jury is made up not only of creatives, but planners, executives, clients, PRs, marketers, consultants…everyone who makes up our vibrant industry.
This year, more than 800 jurors voted on the work online. The Grand Prix winners were chosen after a live panel debate.
