Designing a people-focused approach to behaviour change:
Using community based social marketing to support a nascent Transition Town initiative
Community-Based Social Marketing (CBSM), as envisioned by its founder, Canadian environmental psychologist Doug McKenzie-Mohr, is the application of six social psychological findingss to enhance social marketing efforts and thereby increase their likelihood of success. The six tools of CBSM are commitment, prompts, norms, communication, incentives and conveniences. To support a grassroots environmental/public health group seeking to promote community resilience in a Toronto, Canada neighbourhood (Transition Town Roncesvalles) via a community-based food initiative, the authors developed a CBSM Plan. The poster below describes each tool in the CBSM toolbox and how we applied a community- (as opposed to individual)-focused style of social marketing to the challenges faced by for that grassroots group.
