National Missing Persons Week (NMPW): Missing Persons

Starting today, Out of Home (OOH) signs across Australia will highlight and profile missing people as part of National Missing Persons Week (NMPW), which runs from Sunday 4 August to Saturday 10 August. The 2019 campaign marks the eleventh year that Outdoor Media Association (OMA) members have supported NMPW in New South Wales, and the fifth year in partnership with the Australian Federal Police (AFP). Research commissioned by National Missing Persons Coordination Centre (NMPCC) reveals that there are currently more than 2,600 Australians who have been listed as missing for three months or more.

The focus of this year's campaign, is to highlight the people behind the statistics: they are fathers, daughters, students, chefs and academics with families and friends who are grieving their loss.
