SUMMARY:Myths and Facts: Busting the myths about PR and comms Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday 4th June 2025 @ 7:30am - 9:00am 						\n					\n				\n				\n			\n			\n		\n				\n				\n					\n		\n					\n		\n				\n				\n							OverviewShifting Kiwi attitudes to the risk of harm is a significant challenge for any engagement campaign\, but it’s one that ACC has met head on with ‘Have a hmmm’. Four years on\, this recognisable campaign is still driving behaviour change and positively impacting New Zealanders. At this breakfast session\, hear from the social marketing experts behind the ‘Have a hmmm’ public engagement programme\, which aims to connect New Zealanders to interventions that support their wellbeing and protect them from injury.  Research shows almost all injuries are predictable and therefore preventable. Based on that understanding and built on behaviour change principles\, ‘Have a hmmm’ encourages people to stop and think about how getting injured could impact their family\, friends\, and workmates. Since launching in 2021\, the campaign has led to continuous year-on-year increases in the number of New Zealanders who say advertising and other activations have motivated them to take steps to prevent injuries to themselves or others. Helen Mills and James Whitaker will share their insights on developing an evidence-based approach to changing attitudes and behaviour\, how they’ve maintained support amidst tight budgets and changing priorities\, and what they’re doing to ensure ‘Have a Hmmm’ continues to have an impact over time. Helen will also share her ‘light and tasty’ tips for communicators working to drive behaviour change.

SUMMARY:How to Optimise Your Social and Media Mahi
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday 4th June 2025 @ 7:30am - 9:00am 						\n					\n				\n				\n			\n			\n		\n				\n				\n					\n		\n					\n		\n				\n				\n							OverviewShifting Kiwi attitudes to the risk of harm is a significant challenge for any engagement campaign\, but it’s one that ACC has met head on with ‘Have a hmmm’. Four years on\, this recognisable campaign is still driving behaviour change and positively impacting New Zealanders. At this breakfast session\, hear from the social marketing experts behind the ‘Have a hmmm’ public engagement programme\, which aims to connect New Zealanders to interventions that support their wellbeing and protect them from injury.  Research shows almost all injuries are predictable and therefore preventable. Based on that understanding and built on behaviour change principles\, ‘Have a hmmm’ encourages people to stop and think about how getting injured could impact their family\, friends\, and workmates. Since launching in 2021\, the campaign has led to continuous year-on-year increases in the number of New Zealanders who say advertising and other activations have motivated them to take steps to prevent injuries to themselves or others. Helen Mills and James Whitaker will share their insights on developing an evidence-based approach to changing attitudes and behaviour\, how they’ve maintained support amidst tight budgets and changing priorities\, and what they’re doing to ensure ‘Have a Hmmm’ continues to have an impact over time. Helen will also share her ‘light and tasty’ tips for communicators working to drive behaviour change.
