Programme Listing

This session offers fresh, field-grounded insights into how stigma operates through advertising and marketplace systems and how social marketing can disrupt it. Drawing on original qualitative research, it shows how communication can either deepen exclusion or enable behaviour change among highly vulnerable groups. You’ll leave with clear theoretical contributions, practical implications for health campaigns, and ideas you can immediately apply to your own research and practice.
