Seven Steps to Writing a Health Campaign

Covid19 Vaccine Hesitant Spr 23

Length of paper 18 pages double-spaced, Calibri 11 font, not including title page or references.

This is the seven step model to writing a health campaign as covered in chapters 13 and 14 of your duPre textbook.  You will write your own health campaign exactly following these seven steps with the instructions listed below each step.  You will be doing research to address many of these questions.  Cite your sources within the text of your paper and in the references page using APA format.

Objective:  For this project your goal is to design a campaign that will persuade your small, specific target audience to get the covid19 vaccine or booster.

Scenario The scenario for your campaign is that you, as the spokesperson as well as developer for your campaign, will attempt to persuade vaccine hesitant members of your family/friends or group to which you belong to get the COVID19 vaccine, or booster or for parents to vaccinate their children.  Especially with the vaccine hesitant, research shows they are most likely to be persuaded by a member of their own community or someone they respect.

Imagine that you work for a healthcare employer and your supervisor asked your team to each write their own proposal for an individualized campaign to persuade a particular small group of Covid 19 vaccine hesitant people to vaccinate or booster themselves or their children.  The employer requires all proposals to be written in the same format so they can be easily compared.

 

Step 1: Defining the Situation and Potential Benefits

  1. Identify and explain the health issue on which you will focus (e.g. Covid19 vaccination for vaccine hesitant people or parents to vaccinate their children or the already vaccinated to get their booster shot). Define important terms.
  2. Address the significance/costs: What are the health consequences?   What are the personal costs to individuals?   What are the societal costs to others?
  3. Address the scope: How prevalent is this health concern? Is the prevalence greater for some groups than others?
  4. Address factors influencing people’s behavior regarding this health issue.

 

Step 2: Analyzing and selecting a Target Audience

You are selecting and describing whom your campaign will target and why, as well as the thoughts and behaviors of this targeted group of people that could be addressed by your campaign:

  1. Based on articles addressing your health issue, think carefully about the people affected by the issue (target population).  Describe the people/groups affected by your health issue.
  2. Choose a target audience that your campaign could significantly impact (i.e., your family/friends, groups you know and belong to, parents to vaccinate their children). Describe this group and why it is particularly important that they be the focus of a campaign on your health issue (i.e., why is it important to change their behavior?)   Your writing needs to explain why you chose this target population.   Why should a campaign be focused on their behavior?
  3. Find out everything you can about your “target audience.”  Why are they particularly vulnerable on your health issues?  What thoughts/behaviors offer information about how to persuade this group?

 

Step 3: Establishing Campaign Goals and Objectives

In this section, you are setting objectives for your campaign (e.g. convince target audience to get the covid19 vaccine) and you are planning the communication efforts that will enable you to reach them (e.g., facetime, zoom, email, letters, PowerPoint etc.).

  1. State the overall goal of your campaign. What do you want to achieve?  What kinds of changes do you want your campaign to make?  Identify specific objectives, and think in terms of short-term outcomes (awareness of the campaign), mid-term outcomes (changes in beliefs, attitudes, perceptions), and long-term outcomes (behavioral changes, health improvements).
  2. Apply the SMART (specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and timeframe) criteria to the objectives you identified.   Work with your objectives until you have the set you want that meets these criteria. Write this section of your paper laying out your objectives and how they meet the SMART criteria.

 

Step 4: Selecting Channels of Communication

In this section you will plan the communication that will enable you to reach your objective(s).   What is your campaign going to DO to get you to those SMART objectives?

  1. Channel Characteristics: Choose a communication method that will best meet your goals for successfully implementing your messageg.(facetime, zoom, email, letters, PowerPoint etc.).
  2. Explain why and how this channel is the best choice for persuading your target audience.
  3. How does this channel affect the impact of the message in terms of involvement and arousal?

 

Step 5: Designing Campaign Messages

This section is the heart of the campaign.  You will choose a theory to guide you in developing the message.

Choosing a Voice and/or Spokesperson: for this project you are the spokesperson for the campaign addressing your target audience and persuading them to get a covid19 vaccine. Write about what makes you a good spokesperson for this particular audience.

 

Theoretical Foundation for message framing. Choose one of the theories covered in chapters 13 and 14 of the duPre textbook to guide you in framing your message. The text book gives a limited explanation of the theories.  In order to demonstrate a deeper understanding of the theory you choose, do a search for more information on the theory.

  1. Explain the major theory that undergirds your campaign.
  2. Define all major terms used in the theory.
  3. Explain the major predictions of the theory.
  4. Explain how the theory is useful in you campaign.

 Discussion: Wrap-Up

Leaders must understand the importance of the brand to business success and sustainability. It is important for you to reflect on the last nine weeks and the relevance of marketing to optimizing a brand. The theme park scenario you have worked on will, someday, not be a purely hypothetical situation to you. You will be faced with real-world crises and challenges. There will be critical roles for marketing and other functional departments to play when they arise.

One of the important factors in your personal success will be how you brand yourself. What do you represent? Why should you be the “go-to” future leader of an organization? Why should you be the first choice as that leader? You are being asked to self-reflect on what you want your personal brand to be.

In your initial post, you should address the following questions based on what you learned in this course:

  • What are at least three key course takeaways that resonate with you and that you may use in your current or future workplace? Explain how they resonate with you.
  • When thinking of attributes of an effective leader, what personal brand traits do they appear to possess?
  • Describe your desired personal brand. How can being a lifelong learner help with reaching your desired personal brand image?

When responding to at least two of your peers’ posts, consider the following:

  • Compare and contrast your learning from the course with that of your peers.
  • How do your views on the attributes of an effective leader align with those of your peers?

What is the policy issue? What was the event or series of events that was a catalyst for action? Is it a problem or crisis that demands immediate attention? What interests are at stake for the Actor (e.g. the government) overall?

Policy Brief and Analysis of Canadian Indigenous Policy

Section I – Identify the Policy Problem
This section describes the symptoms, magnitude, and consequences of the policy problem you are analyzing, and identifies one or more plausible goals for government intervention (i.e. goals for a policy or program).

Your analysis should convince a thoughtful, analytic reader of the existence and importance of the policy problem, and inform the reader about alternative goals for public intervention. You should not approach this as an advocate (watch out for exaggerated claims, etc.) and you should not begin by identifying the lack of a policy or program as the problem.

Your analysis in this section should address the following questions:

  • What is the policy issue?
  • What was the event or series of events that was a catalyst for action?
  • Is it a problem or crisis that demands immediate attention?
  • What interests are at stake for the Actor (e.g. the government) overall?

Section II – What are the Potential Solutions?
This section describes and evaluates the policy alternatives designed to help meet the policy goals. You are expected to identify alternatives and to identify and logically support criteria by which these alternatives can be compared. The alternatives can draw on both existing policies and programs, or propose new ones.

This section should address the following questions:

  • What alternatives were considered to address the policy problem?
  • Why were the other alternatives rejected? Were they rejected for political or rational reasons?
  • Describe the trade-offs policy makers must accept based on your selection.

Section III – What Action do you recommend?
Now that you know the problem, the goals, the alternatives, and advantages of each, your job in this section is to think critically about the implementation realities.

You will want to consider the political interests and how they are organized, along with the ability to enact policy alternatives. It is important to remember that new policies create new politics. Based on your analysis, make a recommendation for action or, if there is no single “best” solution, compare the relative benefits of the top two alternatives.

Questions to be addressed in this section include:

  • Who are the primary stakeholders? What are their interests?
  • What is the extent of agreement on goals? What are the potential conflicts?
  • What is the possibility for implementing various alternatives?
