 “Can you really ignore what’s in front of your eyes?” says <keyword id="3679984" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="stratis-valamios">Stratis Valamios</keyword>, a fisherman from the <a href="http://: http://www.liveinstyle.com/lis-exclusives/ode-lesvos-inspiring-story-today-world-needs">Greek island</a> of Lesvos, in <a href="http://: http://www.liveinstyle.com/lis-exclusives/ode-lesvos-inspiring-story-today-world-needs">Ode to Lesvos</a>, a documentary about the recent refugee crisis that has awakened the consciousness of the entire world. He further adds, “Because tomorrow it could be me. I could be on a boat with my family and I would like to be helped.” 
 
Lesvos is a village in the northern Aegean Sea off the coast of Turkey, with a mere population of about 150 people. A year ago, it came to the front line of the refugee crisis as hundreds and thousands of people came ashore, fleeing war, and seeking a <a href="http://www.liveinstyle.com/lis-exclusives/ode-lesvos-inspiring-story-today-world-needs">better future</a>. 
 
This time, twelve months ago, Stratis’ life changed beyond recognition when the refugee crisis reached the shores of his tiny village. Ever since, he has been busy rescuing men, women, and children from the waters around his home. The stories of these islanders is the Ode To Lesvos, a short documentary that captures how lives of both the refugees and some of the islanders have changed. 
 
 
 
While the refugees got a fresh lease of life, the islanders’ uncompromising compassion has earned some of them, including Stratis, and fellow fisherman, Thanassis Marmarinos and 85-year-old Aimilia Kamvisi a <a href="http://http://www.liveinstyle.com/lis-exclusives/ode-lesvos-inspiring-story-today-world-needs">Nobel Peace Prize</a> nomination. The positive response of the people of Lesvos who, last year alone, helped almost half a million refugees making the dangerous voyage across the Aegean Sea, has been documented in Ode to Lesvos which is part of The Storyline, a series by <keyword id="2043" type="COMPANY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Johnnie-Walker">Johnnie Walker</keyword> The Journey. 
 
All through last year, headlines from the region focused on the unfolding human drama in the Aegean and Mediterranean seas. However, Ode to Lesvos shines light on a lesser told and heartwarming story. The inspiring response of islanders who opened their hearts to the refugees and whose positivity drove them to rescue people from the sea, give shelter, and provide food and water is already gaining a huge following. As part of the launch of Ode to Lesvos, Johnnie Walker The Journey India is supporting Mercy Corps, a leading global organization that helps people around the world survive and thrive after conflict, crisis and natural disasters. Since the Syrian war began, Mercy Corps has helped more than 7.7 million people affected by the crisis. It has expanded its programming to <a href="http://www.liveinstyle.com/lis-exclusives/ode-lesvos-inspiring-story-today-world-needs">Greece</a> and The <keyword id="67891" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Balkans">Balkans</keyword> in response to the migration crisis. 
 
In the words of Simon O’Connell, Executive Director, Mercy Corps Europe, “The migration crisis continues to have a huge impact on the world in which we live. It is vitally important that we are able to tell these kind of stories and raise awareness of the issues faced by those who are forcibly displaced and the communities who receive them. It is our <a href="http://www.liveinstyle.com/lis-exclusives/ode-lesvos-inspiring-story-today-world-needs">hope </a>that by working with Johnnie Walker The Journey we can share this incredible story of the islanders of Lesvos to inspire others and their positive actions. There is a thread of <a href="http://www.liveinstyle.com/lis-exclusives/ode-lesvos-inspiring-story-today-world-needs">humanity </a>that links each and every one of us and when someone needs help, we must be present.” 
 
Mercy Corps is a leading global organization powered by the belief that a better world is possible. A team of over 5,000 people working in 43 countries around the world, Mercy Corps is one of the largest organizations helping people inside Syria and it works in countries including Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iraq to help address the underlying causes of conflict and fragility.

In a short time, WYP is one of the fastest-growing, hottest creative agencies in India, winning never-before accolades at international awards like Cannes Lions and Clio, along with Content Agency of the year at Goafest. It has also been the most awarded agency from India at the APAC Effies. Amit Akali, Founder – MD &amp; CCO at WYP will now be the co-founder at Wondrlab. Amit comes with nearly 25 years of experience. Before founding WYP, he was National Creative Director at <keyword id="684017" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Grey-India">Grey India</keyword>, along with being part of the Grey Global Creative Council. WYP will remain a separate brand and become a part of Wondrlab’s content platform. The acquisition comes just a month after Wondrlab’s launch and will be followed by a series of high-impact reveals. Wondrlab has already bagged 25 clients and will have over 100 employees by December 2020. <keyword id="749098" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Saurabh-Varma">Saurabh Varma</keyword>, Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Wondrlab, said: “I had the opportunity to watch WYP during a pitch and was incredibly impressed by their thinking, passion and ability to solve clients’ problems in a meaningful way. I decided to connect with Amit and over a few conversations realised that we had the same purpose and belief in the kind of work we wanted to do. We both believed in the power of creativity and the future which data and technology can serve us. We both felt that our future is in building our own platforms. It is truly amazing seeing WYPs journey and the incredible job Tejas Mehta, Ruchita Zambre and the entire team has done and the reputation they’ve built for it. I am proud that Amit joins us as a co-founder. I could not have asked for a better partner to help us shape and drive our creative firepower. WYP is our first acquisition and we will continue to curate, partner, launch and acquire as we move forward.” Amit Akali, Co-Founder and Chief Creative Officer, Wondrlab, said, “What we’ve achieved at WYP has been phenomenal. Today, we are a 60-member team at our new BKC office in Mumbai. The momentum in the last year has been even greater, with us being probably the only agency that’s grown manifold in the lockdown. We’ve been lucky to create some of the most talked-about work in the last few months, be it the iconic Johnnie Walker Travelling Billboard, Tanishq ‘Ekatvam’ or the IPL campaign for Dailyhunt. A big thanks to Praful who helped me start WYP with the other co-founders. To Tejas, who has played a key role in our growth and continues to do so. Along with every past and present employee who’s always looked at WYP as their own family and given it their all. We are thrilled to be a part of Wondrlab. I am excited about the new, even larger, playing field we’re getting. The integration is almost seamless as the vision is identical. In a digital-first era, platformisation and technology are the drivers of customised solutions for brands.” He added, “When I first spoke to Saurabh and the other co-founders Vandana and Rakesh, it was uncanny how we share the same goals, ambitions and ideals. Together we aim to be a technology and creative powerhouse.” Malabar Capital Advisors served as financial consultants for the acquisition.
