Social Marketing Workshop Evaluation Report

This document reports upon two afternoon workshops on ‘Evaluating Social Marketing’, which were conducted on the 9th and 10th September 2009 for Eastern and Coastal Kent (ECK) PCT. The workshops were held at the Centre for Health Services Studies, University of Kent. The aims were to increase participants’ understanding of social marketing and evaluation, and to develop an action plan that will meet any training needs and identify how research support can be provided until the end of the project. Following a scoping exercise conducted by the CHSS Social Marketing Team between April and June 2009, a need was identified to inform social marketing project leads of the concept and application of social marketing, and help with the evaluation of social marketing initiatives.
