Notes for Judging: Antisemitism is rising amongst young people in Australia. Yet with only 120,000 Jews in the country, most Aussies have never met someone Jewish. So instead of calling out the hate, we tackled the ignorance that led to it and gave people something to love. Incommon reimagines parts of Jewish culture as products for everyone to enjoy, no matter their background. Designed and packaged like a drop culture brand, with copy that entertained as it educated. Sent to non-Jewish influencers to have cultural convos with every unboxing. Available online, in stores and at the Sydney Jewish Museum.

In 6 weeks weeks, the Incommon campaign achieved huge results:
• +175 million total views of creator content.
• +5.4 million young Australians reached, more than half the target demographic in the country.
• One creator video became the #14 most trending on TikTok Australia.
• A 10% uplift in people who agree with the statement "I see similarities between myself and Jewish people," measured through independent brand tracking.
• 85% positive sentiment across all comments.
• In monitoring the campaign, TikTok recognised new, covert ways hateful comments were beating their detection, resulting in an updating of their global content moderation policy, making the platform safer for all minorities.
