About This Webinar
Corporations are increasingly tasked with addressing significant environmental sustainability concerns such as natural resource depletion, air quality, and marine debris. Without exception, the success of any sustainability effort hinges on behavior change on the part of individuals.
Community-based social marketing (CBSM) has emerged as an effective approach for developing and revitalizing strategies that achieve measurable behavior change. CBSM is an evidence-based process that goes beyond knowledge and awareness raising to remove barriers, increase motivation, and change behavior through the application of social science tools. The session will include case studies to demonstrate the theoretical foundations and guidance for how to apply the process in corporate, consumer, and industry contexts.
