Swiss Campaign Warns Against Sharing Children’s Photos
Kinderschutz Schweiz launched a trilingual awareness campaign at the start of the summer holidays warning parents about the risks of 'sharenting' — sharing children's photos online. The campaign film was conceived and produced by Maybaum Film and uses a visual metaphor of a net over a child's bed containing smartphones to illustrate how published images can remain online permanently. The spot deliberately avoids showing real children's faces; the production team manually altered an original photo and used an AI application to generate the images visible on smartphone displays. Campaign materials include a main film, DOOH creatives for airports and public spaces, vertical social assets and static visuals.
Highlights industry-relevant production practices (use of AI to generate imagery), DOOH and social asset deployment, and privacy considerations around sharenting — relevant for creative production and brand safety practices but not industry-shifting.

Retro Pixel Film Warns Against Cyber Dangers
Kinderschutz Schweiz has launched the third and final phase of its prevention campaign against cybersexual offenses targeting children and adolescents, which began in 2024. Central to this phase is a short film in a retro pixel style, reminiscent of 1980s and 1990s games, where a child-like character navigates digital dangers until adult caregivers intervene. The campaign, developed by Neu Creative Agency, aims to reach the generation of parents who grew up with such games. It promotes protective strategies like open conversations, clear rules for digital media use, and cautious handling of images and personal data. The campaign is supported by the national platform 'Jugend und Medien' and various police and federal offices, with supporters including Sunrise, AXA, Livesystems, ZipScreen, and the Guido-Fluri Foundation.
Klexx and Zurich Vet Office Use AI Images in Campaign
The Veterinary Office of the Canton of Zurich and agency Klexx launched an integrated dog-bite prevention campaign titled “Hunden sicher begegnen” on 17 August 2026. The child- and family-focused campaign uses AI-generated person images to protect the personality rights of real children. Creative assets include posters, an explainer film, a cinema spot, e-panels, a family brochure, classroom materials and a colouring book. The campaign responds to local statistics (over 70,000 registered dogs in the canton and about 860 reported bite incidents in 2025) and expands existing prevention courses to reach the wider Zurich population.
Kids' Drawings Power New Road Safety Campaign
Germany's long-running road safety campaign 'Runter vom Gas' (Take Your Foot Off the Gas) is introducing a new flight of seven billboard motifs created entirely by children. The campaign, led by the Federal Ministry for Digital and Transport (BMDV) and the German Road Safety Council (DVR), with agency Scholz & Friends as the incumbent since 2016, marks a departure from its traditional shock imagery. Following a public vote that favored children's drawings over more graphic options, children nationwide submitted their artwork addressing the three most common highway accident causes: insufficient distance, excessive speed, and distraction. The new motifs will be displayed on approximately 700 billboard sites across Germany starting in October, accompanied by social media videos and assets. The campaign aims to promote respect and consideration on the roads, leveraging the persuasive power of children's perspectives.
