The Good Report celebrating the best campaigns for social & environmental responsibility 2020 [REPORT]

The Good Report is a unique ranking of the world’s best use of creative communications to promote sustainability and social responsibility to raise awareness of major social and environmental issues.

It is produced by ACT Responsible, the international non-profit association and largest global source of the world’s best ads on social and environmental issues, in collaboration with WARC, the worldwide authority on marketing effectiveness and publisher of the WARC Creative 100 Rankings, a global benchmark of creative excellence in advertising.

A total of 1,266 campaigns produced by 748 agencies for 1,012 brands (non-profit, public sector, and commercial brands) across 78 markets were evaluated for this latest Good Report.

The Good Report ranking combines a campaign’s presence and performance in shows tracked for the WARC Creative 100 throughout 2020, and in ACT Responsible initiatives (Great Ads for Good Exhibition, the Care Awards, « One minute of Responsibility » TV Program, all Tributes (public vote), Good Ad Gallery). There are no complicated criteria or categories, just great work for Good.

Of the top 40 campaigns featured in The Good Report 2020, 27 are for non-profits, 11 for commercial brands (including three produced in collaboration with non-profits) and two for public sectors. 40 agencies (28 of which are from 19 networks and 14 are independent agencies) across 21 markets are represented.

The top 25 agencies are made up of six independent and 19 networked agencies covering a total of 13 markets. Of the top 20 networks, three are independent and 17 are owned by holding companies. The top ten brands include seven non-profits, one for-profit and two are collaborations.
