9.00am - 10.30am Keynote Presentation Chair: Professor Rebekah Russell-Bennett

09.00 Adrian Bauman, Sesquicentenary Professor of Public Health, University of Sydney, Australia “The politics and promotion of public health – a tangled web of mass media campaigns and social marketing” Public health approaches to social marketing are increasingly used to increase community awareness, reframe individual behavioural agendas, and provide a call to action to promote health. The history of public health campaigns is several decades old, but over time, mass media campaigns have become re-labelled as social marketing, without the elements of a comprehensive social marketing approach. The [mostly political] causes of this, and implications for campaign effectiveness pose challenges for the future of this kind of initiative in population health. This presentation will outline marketing successes, and some of the limitations of these approaches in public sector health-related communication. Finally, new opponents have emerged for public sector messages, including counter-marketing by industry; initially the tobacco industry, but more recently from Big Food, alcohol and other private sector areas, through disseminating messages and marketing strategies to counter and undermine health promoting communications. Strategies for “countercounter-marketing” are still formative, but much needed in the multi-platform media environments in which information and communications occur in the 21st Century.

ballroom 2&3

09.45 Anne Moffat, Manager – Executive Services, Moreton Bay Regional Council, Queensland Government, Australia “The challenges and benefits for governments in implementing social marketing” Social marketing – that’s Facebook right? If you’ve ever been asked this question – or you’ve had to explain that no, a tv ad is not going to change the world, let alone behaviours – then this presentation will resonate. Government is so often at the precipice of the big social issues, and there is a clear need for change. So why is it so hard to implement the right strategies to make it happen? Anne will explore some of the realities and the myths around what makes social marketing work – and not work – for government.

10.30am - 11.00am Sponsor Presentation by Rescue Social Change Group

Jeff Jordan, President and Executive Creative Director, Rescue Social Change Group “Can We Start Over? Understanding distinct behaviour change pathways and when to use them.” Knowledge change, policy change, structural change and cultural change are all “change pathways” that can be supported with a social marketing strategy. Unfortunately, programmes too often, and sometimes unknowingly, determine which pathway to pursue before even conducting any research or understanding the potential impact of that pathway. Insights are not just about understanding your audience’s preferences and knowledge, they are also critical to determining which behaviour change pathway a social marketing programme should pursue. This talk will explore the factors that should be considered before solidifying your social marketing programme’s behaviour change pathway.

Social Marketing Ethical Dilemmas: Pursuing Practical Solutions for Pressing Problems

Marketing Strategy in the Context of Social Enterprise Dualities: Development of a Conceptual Model

Lynne Eagle - NZ Associate Dean if Research & Professor of Marketing - College of Business, Law and Governance, James Cook University, Australia

Dr. Judith Madill - CAN Full Professor, Paul Desmarais Professor in Marketing, Telfer School of Management, University of Ottawa

Stephan Dahl - GER Senior Lecturer in Marketing and Adjunct Associate Professor - Hull University Business School in England and James Cook University, Australia Stacy Carter - AUS Associate Professor and NHMRC Career Development Fellow - Centre for Values, Ethics and the Law of Medicine (VELiM), Sydney School of Public Health, University of Sydney We use data from a pilot study of actual ethical dilemmas encountered by social marketing practitioners and resources used to resolve them to discuss ethical resources to support social marketing practitioners. Key challenges include concerns about funders’ influence on social marketing activity. Advocacy and practical decision-making support options are discussed. Truth in Social Marketing: Applying Truth Frameworks to the Strategic Evaluation of Social Marketing Campaigns Thomas Boysen Anker - DAN Lecturer, Adam Smith Business School – Management - Glasgow University Marketing codes and regulations stress that all marketing communications should be truthful. But what is truth in social marketing? This presentation proposes a theoretical framework for the evaluation of truthfulness of behavioural claims in social marketing, integrating the correspondence, coherence and pragmatic theories of truth. Enviro-ethical Dialogism: Implications for CSR and Consumer Engagement Dr Will McConnell - USA/Canada Assistant Dean - College of Transdisciplinarity Chair, Interdisciplinary Studies, Woodbury University

The purpose of this presentation is to develop a deeper understanding of the tensions that influence the context in which social enterprises operate, and to propose a model of how those tensions influence the development of marketing strategy in social enterprises. What Rocks Your Boat? When “Attraction” meets “Social Identity” to Achieve Behavioural Change Peiyi Wang - AUS Doctoral Candidate, Swinburne University of Technology, Faculty of Business and Law, Department of Marketing, Tourism and Social Impact Through the curious case of “ALS Ice Bucket Challenge”, we explore how social media can be used to entice individuals to participate in charitable campaigns at the rate of a speed-date. Cross-Cultural Shared Leadership as a Vehicle to Achieving Community-Level Behavioural Change through Capacity Building Clare Johansson - AUS Doctoral Student, Swinburne University of Technology Energy costs are a financial strain which disproportionately affect Indigenous communities, causing stress among members and affecting their well-being. This paper proposes that Indigenous and non-Indigenous organisations in partnership may improve the well-being of vulnerable communities through Shared Leadership, to develop capacity building and selfdetermination. For and By the People: Promoting Citizen Participation in Local Governance in Bangladesh Raihan Amin - BAN Head of Strategic Planning, Unisocial

Dr Mine Ucok Hughes - USA/Turkey Associate Professor Department of Marketing, Woodbury University

Muhammad Tarik Hasan Somy - BAN Executive Director, Unisocial

In this paper, we discuss the emerging paradigm of consumer dynamism and corporate social responsibility, which we call “enviro-ethical dialogism. We present a timely framework for creating marketing opportunities in the rapidly emerging enviroethical paradigm of consumer awareness and demand.

Can Democracy be marketed? Especially to people who have been long colonized? Our work in Bangladesh, on a USAID project, shows that it is indeed possible to market the ideas, ideals and methods of Democratic Governance. In fact, it can get communities engaging with local governments, media and other stakeholders.

Victory is in the Planning: What Sun-Tzu can Teach Social Marketers Tracey Bridges - NZ SenateSHJ New Zealand Managing Partner - SenateSHJ The Art of War, a 2000 year-old military manual by Chinese general Sun Tzu, sets out a philosophy for victory centred on preparation and strategy. Calling on these ancient lessons, Tracey Bridges will challenge practitioners to consider whether their strategy and planning are sufficient to achieve victory (positive social change).

A qualitative analysis of young drivers’ perceptions of driver distraction social marketing interventions

Aggregating Potential Collective Action To Motivate Pro-Social Consumption

Impact Of Public Private Partnerships On Increasing The Uptake Of Modern Contraceptive Methods Through Innovative Social Marketing Campaign

Dr Jennifer Algie - AUS Senior Lecturer, University of Wollongong

Adrian R. Camilleri AUS Lecturer (Marketing), RMIT University

Are you (A) a person who uses their phone when driving? Or (B) a person who cannot understand why other drivers use their phone while driving! Either way, take this freeway exit for a rest-stop at our presentation on driver distraction messages targeting young drivers.

Is the statement “If X people all do Y action then Z outcomes will be achieved” motivating? We answer this question by conducting a series of laboratory experiments focused on motivating proenvironmental actions. It turns out that such statements are motivating. Please join us, and find out why.

Examining response to drink driving and speeding road safety television advertisements in eight countries

If climate change is a super wicked problem, is social marketing a super wicked solution?

Tom Carroll - AUS Technical Adviser, World Lung Foundation

David Meiklejohn - AUS PhD Candidate, RMIT University

Results are presented from a multicountry road safety formative research project examining response to drink driving television advertisements in Brazil, Cambodia, China, India, Mexico and to speeding advertisements in China, Kenya, Russian Federation and Turkey. The most effective appeals and approaches for each road safety behaviour are examined across countries.

Social marketing programs combatting climate change rarely take account of the full complexity of the issue. Only by understanding why climate change is a super wicked problem and what that means, can we hope to design effective social marketing interventions.

The ‘Mistakes’ Campaign - Changing how we think about speed Rachel Prince - NZ Principal Advisor, New Zealand Transport Agency Most speeders believe they’re skilled enough to drive over the limit and that it’s everyone else who’s the problem. Instead of resisting that belief, we launched a campaign that supported it. It had an unprecedented effect. Mistakes started a new conversation about speed amongst people who had stopped listening. A Review of Recent LandmarkDesignated Social Marketing Case Studies Involving Sustainable Transportation

Houda A Khayame - FRA Jordan Communication Advocacy and Policy (JCAP) Project Deputy Director, Abt Associates, Inc In Jordan, large size families’ preference for male children and pregnancy right after marriage are the norms. Family planning is accepted but fear of modern contraceptives remains. While public-private partnership is less of a norm worldwide; it proved to be highly successful in Jordan through a bold social marketing approach. Make the Most of Waste Anna Kary - NZ Senior Specialist Marketing, Auckland Council

Perceived value of using energy efficiently among low-income older residents

To support its aspirational goal of zero waste by 2040, Auckland Council is delivering a behaviour change communications programme to make waste reduction part of Aucklanders’ daily lives. The first marketing campaign tackled increasing recycling contamination, using animated characters to deliver fun messages about what doesn’t go in recycling.

Katherine Butler - AUS Project Manager, Centre for Health Initiatives, University of Wollongong

Social Marketing and Marketing Systems; Towards a Coherent Theory of Change

This study explores the value of using energy efficiently, drawing on focus group research conducted with low-income older residents. We explore how residents perceive the functional, economic, emotional, social and ecological value of using energy efficiently in their daily lives, and consider how social marketers can better understand how value is created through everyday practice.

Professor Roger A Layton - AUS Emeritus Professor of Marketing, Australian School of Business, UNSW Australia

Does ‘Pride’ Work? A meta-analysis of the effect of 84 social marketing campaigns for conservation

Jay Kassirer - CAN President | General Manager, Cullbridge, Tools of Change

Kevin Green - USA Senior Manager, Behavioral & Social Science, Rare

Six innovative and highly successful transportation behaviour programs that were recently awarded the Landmark designation by Tools of Change will be reviewed. They illustrate some novel, replicable and cost-effective approaches to segmentation and personalization, building relationships and engagement over time, and making walking, cycling and transit more appealing than driving.

Conservation is about behavior. A ‘Pride’ campaign promotes behavior change by inspiring communities to take pride in the local resources that make their communities unique. An unprecedented study of 84 ‘Pride’ campaigns across the globe tests the effectiveness of the approach and reveals new insights about human behavior change.

Dr Christine T Domegan - IRE Head of Marketing & Senior Lecturer, National University of Ireland Want to be the best social marketer in the world? Then embed your interventions in systems thinking to bring about far reaching change! Why so? Social marketing systems design can link micro choices to macro structures; focus on processes rather than variables and importantly, connect behaviour change with social change. The Role for Social Marketing in the Program of Saving Lives at Birth in Indonesia Dr Cynthia M Webster - USA/AUS Associate Professor in Marketing, Macquarie University This paper evaluates the Indonesian government’s community-based “Revolusi KIA” program to reduce maternal and infant mortality. Variable results in program success are due to lack of awareness and knowledge of program benefits, perceived financial costs, cultural practices and environmental disparities. Recommendations are made and promotional material developed and distributed. 7

The Use of Photovoice to Understand American Indian Youth’s Perceptions of their Dietary Landscape

A Review of Global Social Marketing Case Studies involving HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis C, and STBBIs

Kathleen Kelly PhD - USA Professor of Marketing, Director of the Center for Marketing & Social Issues, Colorado State University

Heather Bowen Ray - USA Consultant, Murmur

A community-based participatory research (CBPR) method, “photovoice,” was used to gain insight regarding the opportunities and challenges American Indian (AI) youth perceive they face with regard to eating healthily. These insights will contribute to developing an adaptation of an established intervention designed to increase the intake of healthy foods, particularly fruits and vegetables, and to increase youth cooking competencies. Enhancing Well-Being through Anti-Depression Campaigns: Application of Transtheoretical Model Tatiana Levit - CAN Assistant Professor, University of Regina The Transtheoretical Model (TTM) involves five stages of change through which people move to healthier lives. We created detailed criteria to apply TTM to designing anti-depression campaign websites. We put our criteria to the test using the Australian beyondblue campaign to demonstrate the applicability of TTM in mass communication.

The Greatest Gift: Improving Couple HIV Testing Rates in South Africa

Drivers of Condom Brands Perception, Choice and Loyalty among Generation Y South Africans: Proposed Conceptual Model

Tessa Meyer - SA Marketing and Communications Manager, Society for Family Health South Africa

Dr Helen Duh Inseng - CAM Lecturer at the Department of Marketing Management University of Johannesburg

This presentation looks at the successful Couples HIV Counselling and Testing Campaign in South Africa. The main communication idea was “Give your partner the greatest gift” where the gift is testing for HIV together. This is significant because couples HIV testing has shown to have numerous benefits in HIV Prevention.

Generation Y South African students prefer commercially sold branded condoms over freely distributed government condoms. Using a conceptual model, our study examines drivers of not only the preference, but also the choice and loyalty to branded condoms. Our paper contributes to the field of branding in social marketing.

Holding up the Mirror to ‘System 1’: Facing the Reality of Unconscious Racial Discrimination Kathy O’Donoghue - AUS Beyond Blue Janine Scott - AUS TNS

Changing Social Norms through Community-Based Social Marketing Dr Krzysztof Kubacki - POL Senior Lecturer in Marketing and Social Marketing Research Practice Fellow (VicHealth), Griffith University Professor Sharyn Rundle-Thiele - AUS Professor, Director of Social Marketing, Griffith University This research employed a repeated measures design to evaluate VicHealth’s Walk to School 2013, a community-based social marketing program. The results suggest the program increased caregivers’ perception that children in their community walked to/from school and that walking to/from school is socially acceptable.

Can social marketing approach help towards better law implementation?

Disguising the Performance of M-games in Social Marketing

Improving the Social Marketing Experience

Dr Tanja Kamin - SLO Assistant Professor Faculty of Social Sciences and visiting fellow at The University of Sydney, Sydney Democracy Network, University of Ljubljana

Mr Rory Mulcahy - AUS PhD Candidate Queensland University of Technology (QUT)

Michael Basil - CAN Professor of Marketing, University of Lethbridge

This PhD investigated four current social marketing m-games to understand which game attributes made them useful for behaviour change. This presentation will explore the game attributes which appear to be used as a disguise to mask the behavioural intention of the game through entertainment.

The nature of the emotional “experience” is critical to commercial marketing. In many health interventions, however, the focus is on information and fear. These are not the most effective strategies with reluctant audiences. A focus on positive and enabling factors would differentiate us and build positive perceptions of social marketing.

Legal regulation has limited effect in achieving behaviour change. Social marketing interventions can influence social approval of the law and increase its effectiveness. The paper provides evidence that social marketing intervention can bring results in increasing compliance with the law when it comes to regulating alcohol availability to young people. Alcohol Consumption Behaviours in Vietnam: A Tale of Two Cities Professor Linda Brennan - AUS Professor, School of Media & Communications, RMIT University Melbourne This study examines social drinking in Vietnam to gain an understanding of how norms are established and transferred within the cultural setting. There are differences in drinking behaviours and social practices between settings (Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City). Responsible drinking initiatives will need to be account for these differences. The Use of New Media using Peer Promoters in HIV and Substance Abuse Prevention Jeralyn Powell - USA Social Media Specialist, Aletheia House While substance abuse and HIV continue to affect our communities, a rise in digital and social media have impacted the way we communicate. The 1 Night Only and 1 Door Closes programs use new media for the dissemination of prevention messages, specifically for African American females and MSM ages 13-24. Learning from commercial marketing: Novel use of cigarette packaging to communicate health messages

Exploring the Use of Sport-Linked Alcohol Marketing via Social Media Dr Kate Westberg - AUS Associate Professor, Marketing RMIT University The sport-alcohol-social media triumvirate presents a significant emerging issue in the fight against alcohol-related harm. We identify four social media strategies used by alcohol brands to leverage their association with sport, cultivating a sense of camaraderie and shared identity involving high levels of engagement, cocreation of content and social activation. One Issue, Three Campaigns: Effectively Reaching At-Risk Teens Jeff Jordan - USA President & Executive Creative Director Rescue Social Change Group After researching why teens engage in risk behaviors, the state of Virginia (USA) chose to break its teen tobacco prevention strategy into three independent campaigns. Learn how and why this works. A comprehensive conceptual model of contemporary coolness for brand and social marketing Khondker Galib B Mohiuddin -BAN PhD Student, Macquarie University Understanding and measuring ‘coolness’ of brands may enable social marketers to improve efficacy of social marketing for certain target markets. An exploration of the concept of ‘coolness’ is the first step.

Dr Crawford Moodie - SCO Senior Research Fellow, Institute for Social Marketing, University of Stirling Talking cigarette packs that inform of the risks of smoking, cigarette pack inserts featuring positive messaging, and cigarettes that display health warnings borrowing from commercial marketing practices to explore how to use cigarette packaging to its full potential.

The incorporation of Transformative Consumer Research principles within the ‘Cancer Good News’ social marketing project: A Case Study Dr Lyn Phillipson - AUS Senior Lecturer (School of Health and Society) and Associate Director (Centre for Health Initiatives), Faculty of Social Sciences, University of Wollongong Can social marketers achieve more than just ‘insight’ into our target audiences through formative research? This paper presents a case study of the benefits of using a transformative consumer research approach to maximise the benefits for a vulnerable CALD target audience within a social marketing program to promote cancer screening. Moving Forward: Conceptualising the Social Marketing Value Chain Dr Marie-Louise Fry - AUS Griffith Business School, Griffith University Dr Josephine Previte - AUS UQ Business School, The University of Queensland The social marketing critique and discussion during this presentation challenges social marketers to move beyond ‘problem and deficit’ thinking to address social issues. We discuss the ‘Social Marketing Value Chain” as an alternative approach that seeks to open new thinking for creating viable, relevant social change solutions. Looking through a glass onion: A mixed method formative research case Julia Carins - AUS Nutrition Scientist & Social Marketing PhD Student, DSTO & Griffith University Ever tried looking through a Glass Onion?

A case study demonstrates how mixed methods were used in formative research study to develop a program to change eating behaviour. 9

Come and join Rebekah Russell-Bennett and Jeff French for this early seminar on what social marketing is all about and how best to describe it. This session will feed into the AASM , iSMA and ESMA work on developing a globally endorsed set of social marketing principles and concepts to underpin the global consensus definition of social marketing developed by the associations in 2013. For background reading, see French, J. and Russell-Bennett (2015) A hierarchical model of Social Marketing principles, concepts and techniques, Journal of Social Marketing. (Tea, coffee, toast and pastries will be served for attendees)

9:00am – 10:30am Welcome from AASM President, Ross Gordon, followed by Keynote Presentation Keynote speakers: 09.15 Joel Bakan, author, filmmaker and professor of law at the University of British Columbia Marketing and the Social Good - Part Problem, Part Solution Joel critically examines how corporations deploy increasingly manipulative and insidious tactics to market their products (especially to children and youth) while, at the same time, marketing themselves as credible and trustworthy advocates of the social good. Social marketing can play an important role in countering these potentially harmful and deceptive practices, he suggests, though only if it remains self-consciously independent, rooted in critical thinking, and vigilantly resistant to industry attempts to coopt and influence its practice. Bakan provides critical reflections on today’s commercial marketing while offering hopeful discussion on how social marketing can be a force for good.

10.00 Ashfaq Rahman, Managing Director, Social Marketing Company (SMC), Bangladesh Maximizing social impact through a sustainable social business model social marketing applied at scale. With over 800 full time employees and an annual turnover of $ 35.0 million, Social Marketing Company (SMC), Bangladesh is one of the largest and most successful social marketing organizations globally. Established in 1974 as a family planning project, SMC today represents 30% of all national contraceptive use in Bangladesh. SMC is also the biggest manufacturer and distributor of oral rehydration salts (ORS) selling over 400 M sachets annually. SMC also implements several donor programs involving BCC and training of private sector health providers. It manages a network of 6000 fractional franchise clinics called Blue Star. In this presentation Ashfaq Rahman the CEO of the SMC will describe how the SMC evolved and applied social marketing on a national scale to achieve population level impact. Ashfaq will also describe how by following a business model focused on sustainability through cross subsidy, SMC has achieved full recovery of all non-program related expenditures in recent years making its operations sustainable over time. The presentation will be illustrated using examples of SMC work in fields or sexual health, family planning, preventive medicine and disease prevention.

Stick With It! Preliminary Results of a Pilot Study using Nudging to Assist with Weight Loss Maintenance

DrinkWise Australia’s core focus is on promoting a healthier and safer drinking culture in Australia. Previous attempts by others to address youth binge drinking by emphasizing the negative but mostly infrequent consequences of excessive drinking – such as violence, assault, and social regret had been unsuccessful. Our communications challenge was to do the seemingly impossible – to get young Australian’s to start thinking differently about moderation, and even aspire to practice it, without telling them to stop.
