Why do we need to communicate?
• To effectively implement social protection schemes,
stakeholders have to send the right messages to the right
people
• Objectives of each communication are different:
• Visibility
• Change views or behaviours of people, including policymakers
• Public education and awareness generation
• Fundraising
• Others
What constitutes a good communication
strategy?
• Diagnosis: explains nature of the challenge, simplifies and
identifies which aspects are critical
• Guiding policy: a consistent, unified approach to resolving
obstacles, in a way that appeals to stakeholders
• Coherent actions: coherent and coordinated actions that flow
from the diagnosis and policy
• Strategy is not a mission statement, vision or statement of goals
Before starting
• Audience: Who do you need to reach? What are their
knowledge levels, attitudes and feelings?
• Behaviour: What change in behaviour is required?
• Messages: What messages are appropriate?
• Channels: Which communication channels will be most effective
in reaching the audience?
• Evaluation: How will you know if you have succeeded?
Designing a successful message
• Use audience experiences, prejudices, alliances, interests,
knowledge
• Audience must identify with the message
• Successful messages follow “5C” approach: clear, concise,
consistent, compelling, convincing
• The message may be supported with a definition of the problem
(e.g. no social protection coverage), evidence (e.g. testimonial
from a potential beneficiary), and proposed solution (e.g.
implementing the SPF)

mobile phones, can be expensive

Making PSA videos
• Oral storytelling
• One message - to persuade the audience
• An interactive experience,
connect with the viewer.
Create a dialogue and stir
emotions:
 Use music
 Make it something
they can relate to,
personal and real
 Short (30 seconds),
memorable, witty

Marketing the SPF at 3 levels
• Marketing 1.0: Focus on the product or idea
 SPF
• Marketing 2.0: Focus on the (supposed) needs of the target
groups
 policy-makers: “SPF helps achieve sustainable socioeconomic growth”
 beneficiaries: “SPF can protect you in difficult times”
• Marketing 3.0: Focus on the drivers for change, subconscious
desires of the target population
 policy-makers: “SPF will contribute to increasing your
popularity”
 Beneficiaries: “SPF will make you happy”
