Course Description

Social marketing is one of the fields/disciplines that we can turn to when learning about and applying the science of human behaviour change. Led by Justine Williams (HBCA team member and Director of Our Family Dog CIC) this short course will take you through the key principles of social marketing, including community social marketing, including lots of examples to bring the subject to life. The presentation style and resources encourage active learning.

Justine was a speaker at our 2016 conference and a keynote speaker at our 2018 conference - both talks were incredibly popular and had fantastic feedback, so we are so excited to be able to host this resource presented by Justine.
