Subject outline

In this subject you will learn about social marketing. Social marketing is the application of marketing principles to solve social problems. Increasingly social marketing is developing its own theory base and also drawing on research in allied areas such as health communication. It is increasingly being adopted by governments, non-governments organizations (NGOs) and others institutions around the world as they seek effective solutions relating to social issues and social problems in poverty, public health, road safety, racism and climate communication and change, along with environmental issues. In this subject you will be introduced to the theory and application of social marketing, explaining how techniques such as branding, segmentation and the marketing mix can be used to respond to social and health issues. Working individually and in small groups, you will learn to analyse real world problems and develop innovative and creative solutions using social marketing frameworks.
