APPROACH
Sea Shepherd Australia wanted to expand beyond its activist base to secure corporate funding for ongoing direct-action missions. MEK developed a digital corporate partnership platform that elevated its DIY activist aesthetic into professional, investment-ready communications without losing urgency or edge. A modular digital design system showcased striking field photography, frontline conservation stories, and the tangible outcomes of corporate support, building trust and alignment with Sea Shepherd’s bold conservation efforts.
