Absurd promises - Asdra
Analyzing politicians' promises to launch a new disability law for people with Down syndrome
AWARDS
"Absurd Promises" helps people with Down syndrome by making them part of the political agenda.
Although Down syndrome is an irreversible genetic disorder, in Argentina people with this condition are obliged to renew their disability certificate once a year. It's an old law, absurd, and intentionally ignored by politicians. During Argentina's live presidential debate, we analyzed the proposals to measure their complexity, and in real time we tweeted the results, tagging politicians with a much simpler proposal to implement a new and more sensible disability law.
‘Absurd Promises’ demonstrates the potential of AI when put in the service of people, and in this case, people with Down syndrome. ASDRA recognizes the VML agency team, who, once again, put their creativity and talent to work in favor of the disability community.”
