Very few organizations can achieve their mission and social change objectives on their own. It is also hard to imagine significant and sustainable change without policy change. And policy change is rarely achieved without some advocacy activity aimed at rallying the public, stakeholders, and decision-makers around an issue and a solution. Hence, advocacy skills are now seen as a core competency for leaders who are serious about addressing the root causes of a given issue.

People erupted with joy across the United States. Some danced in the streets; others wept. Kids were sent home from school to celebrate.

Social marketing and conservation. R.Smith, G.Salazar, J.Starinchak, L.Walters, D.Verissimo

From www.researchgate.net

Most conservation issues stem from people’s actions and choices, so halting biodiversity loss depends on changing human behaviour (Schultz, 2011). The two main approaches traditionally used to achieve such behaviour change are based on education, where people are encouraged to understand and appreciate the natural world, and legislation, where people are punished for breaking
rules and laws designed to protect nature (Rothschild, 2000)…..

Seth Godin: «Gli influencer sono il passato, caduti nella trappola dei social»

From www.ilsole24ore.com

Il futuro degli influencer appartiene già al passato. Perché nella maggior parte dei casi coloro che vengono definiti influencer non lo sono affatto. Piuttosto sono hacker egoriferiti legati alle pubbliche relazioni, e per giunta spesso scarsamente remunerati. D’altronde raccontarsi sui social media è una corsa che non porta alcun vantaggio, perché nel lungo periodo non genera né attenzione e né fiducia. Nella stragrande maggioranza dei casi i social sono una trappola.

All’etica non possiamo domandare di giustificare la medicina preventiva, o addirittura di sostenere la sua aspirazione a rivendicare un primato rispetto a quella curativa. L’assunto «È meglio prevenire che curare» costituisce, in ultima analisi, una affermazione autoreferenziale…
È stata avviata obbligatoriamente la terza rivoluzione in sanità, che comporta l’obbligo morale di valutare se i nostri interventi sanitari vanno in direzione di una società «salutogenica».

Five rules for evidence communication. nature

From www.nature.com
– Today, 16:44

Avoid unwarranted certainty, neat narratives and partisan presentation; strive to inform, not persuade. “Be persuasive”, “be engaging”, “tell stories with your science”.

Most researchers have heard such exhortations many times, and for good reason. Such rhetorical devices often help to land the message, whether that message is designed to sell a product or win a grant. These are the traditional techniques of communications applied to science.
This approach often works, but it comes with danger.

This paper makes the case for immediate planning for a COVID-19 vaccination uptake strategy in advance of vaccine availability for two reasons: first, the need to build a consensus about the order in which groups of the population will get access to the vaccine; second, to reduce any fear and concerns that exist in relation to vaccination and to create demand for vaccines. A key part of this strategy is to counter the anti-vaccination movement that is already promoting hesitancy and resistance. Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic there has been a tsunami of misinformation and conspiracy theories that have the potential to reduce vaccine uptake.

Since the dawn of vaccination there has been a war of disinformation, propagated by both sides. The anti-vaccinationists have lied, bent statistics, invented scare stories and buried facts that undermine their case. They have committed crimes against medicine, science and humanity, and exposed millions to the dangers of preventable infections. The other side may be guilty of far less heinous crimes, but it is not blame-free. The evangelistic desire to spread the benefits of vaccines as widely as possible led pro-vaccinationists to play down the risks, giving fuel to arguments against vaccination.

World No Tobacco Day 2020: protecting youth

From

– Today, 19:08

How the industry targets youth In its efforts to manipulate young people, the tobacco industry has resorted to embellishing products to make them more appealing to specific demographics, particularly via packaging or branding. This has been especially evident in the recent explosion of interest in e-cigarettes and heated tobacco products. One of the most significant innovations by the industry involves its marketing strategies. Across sectors, advertising is increasingly moving online and the tobacco industry is no different – tobacco companies are turning more and more to social media influencers to market these dangerous products.

Globally, there are 1.1 billion adult smokers, 60% of them want or intend to quit. Much has been written and said about the potential of electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) such as e-cigarettes to help tobacco users quit.

As this is the practice with many ENDS users, the health effects of two or more products are combined.

Durante l’emergenza la pratica della medicina obbedisce a regole diverse rispetto a quelle dei tempi normali? Potremmo capirlo: emergenza evoca fretta e urgenza; magari anche insufficienza di risorse per tutti quelli che hanno bisogno di cure, con l’incombere dell’eventualità di dover fare scelte tragiche. Ma “emergenza” può significare anche, etimologicamente, far venire allo scoperto qualcosa che abitualmente resta sotto […]

They comprehensively explain the nature and application of social marketing; reconceptualising ‘value’, ‘systems thinking’, ‘the social marketing intervention mix’, and ‘critical social marketing’, in the social context. They then lay out strategy, plans, frameworks and tactics that policymakers, practitioners, students and indeed any social change agents can use to effect change for social good.

The pandemic is emptying call centers. AI chatbots are swooping in – MIT Technology Review

From

– 18 May, 17:34

Covid-19 is accelerating job losses in an industry that was already automating work at a rapid pace.While call centers have long been a frontier of workplace automation, the pandemic has accelerated the process. Organizations under pressure are more willing to try new tools. AI firms keen to take advantage are sweetening the incentives. Over the last few years, advances in natural-language processing have also dramatically improved on the clunky automated call systems of the past. The newest generation of chatbots and voice-based agents are easier to build, faster to deploy, and more responsive to user inquiries. Once adopted, in other words, these systems will likely be here to stay, proving their value through their ease of use and affordability.

Nearly six in ten (58%) Americans are now either “Alarmed” or “Concerned” about global warming. From 2014 to 2019, the proportion of “Alarmed” nearly tripled.
Our prior research has categorized Americans into six groups – Global Warming’s Six Americas – based on their climate change beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors. The “Alarmed” are the most worried about global warming and the most supportive of strong action to reduce carbon pollution. In contrast, the “Dismissive” do not think global warming is happening or human-caused and strongly oppose climate action.

Era ieri. Solo poche settimane fa. L’ultimo tratto di strada nel percorso della vita poteva avere il volto del vecchio Simeone: consapevole, fiducioso, pacificato.Accompagnato con cure palliative, accolto nell’ambiente protetto dell’hospice. La pandemia ci ha fatto conoscere quanto possa essere brutale la morte nella solitudine e nell’abbandono. L’esatto contrario di quanto l’impegno di medici, infermieri, personale di assistenza e attività di volontariato erano riusciti a produrre. Il modo di prendere congedo dalla vita che il video rappresenta non è un sogno irrealistico da abbandonare. E’ un’eredità preziosa. La facciamo scorrere davanti ai nostri occhi per non dimenticarla. E per impegnarci a farla tornare a essere un sogno realizzabile.

Tweet for Behavior Change: Using Social Media for the Dissemination of Public Health Messages

From
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
– Today, 10:54

Background Social media public health campaigns have the advantage of tailored messaging at low cost and large reach, but little is known about what would determine their feasibility as tools for inducing attitude and behavior change. Objective The aim of this study was to test the feasibility of designing, implementing, and evaluating a social media–enabled intervention for skin cancer prevention. Conclusions Social media–disseminated public health messages reached more than 23% of the Northern Ireland population. A Web-based survey suggested that the campaign might have contributed to improved knowledge and attitudes toward skin cancer among the target population. ….. Social media is an inexpensive, effective method for delivering public health messages. However, existing and traditional process evaluation methods may not be suitable for social media.

The study is concerning as BPA is a known endocrine disruptor, meaning it is capable of scrambling hormone signals, and has been linked to cancer, diabetes and infertility. In-utero BPA exposure has been shown to derail the normal growth of the brain and other organs and manifest later in life as early puberty or an increase in anxiety-related behaviors or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Some replacements have been tied to similar issues including obesity and reproductive problems. The new study linked BPAF concentrations in cord plasma with both premature birth and low birth weight.
