For journalists

Everything you need in order to write about us correctly, without calling to ask how our name is spelled.

In three lines

Îmbrățișări.ro is a community that organises Hug Events across Romania. We go to parks, festivals and marathons, we ask people whether they want a hug, and if they do, we give them one. Taking part is free, and the rule everything runs on is consent: nobody is touched without being asked.

The text above can be quoted as it stands, without asking us.

How to write it correctly

  • The name

    Îmbrățișări.ro — with diacritics, with a dot before “ro”.

  • The slogan

    Deschide Brațele. Îmbrățișează. Dăruiește.

  • What we do

    Hug Events. Capitalised — it is the name of the format.

  • What we are NOT

    We are not a medical service, we are not a religious organisation, and we are not therapy.

Photos

The photos in the public gallery may be used in articles, credited Photo: Îmbrățișări.ro. Every album also has a downloadable archive.

If you need a higher resolution or one particular photo, write to contact@imbratisari.ro with the subject “Press” and we will send it the same day.

One request: please do not crop the photos so that a face ends up out of context. The people in them agreed to a hug, not to a campaign.
