AUDIENCE RESEARCH: WHY
• SHC without audience research fails!
• “Nothing about us, without us”
• TO KNOW FOR SURE:
– what “stage of change”
– what will motivate audience to change.
– what barriers stand in the way of change.
– preferred communication methods & sources.
STAGES OF CHANGE
AUDIENCE RESEARCH: WHEN?
• Before develop your communication
– Formative Research
• While developing your communication – Checking messages – Developing messages WITH YOUR AUDIENCE
• After developing your communication – Pre-Testing – Tracking Survey
AUDIENCE RESEARCH: HOW?
• Focus Group Discussions • Key Informant (Stakeholder) Interviews • Audience Portraits (with your audience) • Workshops • Day in the Life Of (DILO) • Top of Mind Activity (TOMA) • Risk/Community Mapping • KAP (Knowledge, Attitude & Practices)
Surveys • Barriers - Benefits Analysis
AUDIENCE PORTRAITS
• A picture of a typical member of your audience.
Helps you find out about: – What audience already knows. – What attitudes they have towards the behaviour
you are promoting. – What they care about / what you could say to
persuade them to change
• Best done with your target audience!!
AUDIENCE PORTRAIT: Part 1
• What is his/her name? • How old is he/she? • Where does she live? • What does s/he do on weekends? • Does s/he work? If so, what does s/he do? • What community/social groups does s/he belong to? • Who does s/he speak to about health issues? • What MOTIVATES him/her? • What are his/her dreams for the future? • What does s/he care about RIGHT NOW? • Media preferences (from who and how do they want
to hear messages)
AUDIENCE PORTRAIT: Part 2
• What does your audience already know about CC & health?
• What misinformation/myths do they have about CC?
• What are their attitudes towards the behaviour you are promoting?
• Do they need any skills to do the behaviour you are promoting?
• WHAT IS THEIR STAGE OF CHANGE?
CHECK YOUR ASSUMPTIONS!!!! USE RESEARCH!
AUDIENCE PORTRAIT: Part 3
• Barriers/Obstacles to change – What is standing in the way of doing what you
promote?
– Why aren’t they doing it now?
• Benefits of Change – What benefit do audience members already associate or
could associate with the behaviour you are promoting?
Your turn
• Develop an audience portrait using the handout as a guide.
• Pay most attention to: BARRIERS TO CHANGE & STAGE OF CHANGE
• VERY IMPORTANT: NOTE AREAS WHERE YOU NEED MORE RESEARCH.
