It seems the client is the Ministry of Public Health in Lebanon, but maybe the work was done in Dubai. Can anyone give us more info?

Via [ VLAN! ]

UPDATE:
This was done by Leo Burnett Dubai, it was nominated in Cannes.It ran in a student magazine in Beirut.
Artdirector: Toufic Beyhum

    Why to associate the heroin with Nike logo! What’s the connection is it the line? if yes then its not working at all!

    I like the ad, the idea, but also agree with restless.
    would it fit more perfectly if Nike is issuing the ad for public interest?

    Would be better if it is a “X” sign instead of the Nike tick. With the caption “Just don’t” people will relate it better, and there is no negative correlation to Nike as well.

    This was done by Leo Burnett Dubai, it was nominated in Cannes.
    It ran in a tudent magazine in Beirut so it was targeting students and young people only.

    it is not the first time an international brand or icon has been used to communicate an idea that is not related to the featured brand. i think it is witty and goes to show the penetration level of NIKE and its slogan. nice work…keep it up.

    Of course it is good louai, it is leo burnett

    Awesome ideabeautifully simple. If some of the negativity reflects onto Nike (which is being piggy-backed for its fame, appropriately in my opinion) all the better! Definitely makes the point
