A dedicated website with a catchy name is easier for citizens to find and share, and allows easier impact tracking.Using social media to spread the message more widely. Many campaigns centre on advertisements in mainstream media such as newspaper and radio, but social media helps to remain relevant and reach more people effectively. In Japan, the internet, SMS, email and telephone were all used to reach citizens to communicate about the recent energy supply crisis.Building on previous experience and gathering data from each campaign is key to improving future performance. Measurement of baselines and impacts is essential. Insights can be gained by engaging with focus groups and conducting population-wide representative surveys before and after campaigns.

Engaging with key industry players early on to ensure their commitment and future support. For instance, the Netherlands actively involved industry, prominent NGOs and foundations in its Zet ook de knop om (Flip the switch) campaign. Making industry an early ally is key to leveraging private sector resources and experience with advertising and the media. A prominent example is Velux’s The Indoor Generation campaign broadcast in more than 40 countries.Rijksoverheid 2022 Zet Ook De Knop OmRijksoverheid (2022). Zet ook de knop om,

The message for a specific audience is key, packaging the message and sharing it widely is equally important. Governments have historically used public service announcements to share information on new programmes and services. Behavioural campaigns share some features with public service announcements but tend to go further by inspiring people to act. To get messages across, the following best practices have emerged from current and previous campaigns:Using impactful visuals to attract attention and increase shareability via social media. Germany’s “80 Millionen gemeinsam für Energiewechsel” (80 million together for energy change) campaign features people and refers to the population of the country, thus creating making it more relatable and promoting a sense of a community.

IPCC | Climate Change 2022: Mitigation of Climate Change Without immediate and deep emissions reductions across all sectors, limiting global warming to 1.5°C (2.7°F) is beyond reach. In the scenarios assessed, limiting warming to around 1.5°C requires global greenhouse gas emissions to peak before 2025 at the latest, and be reduced by 43% by 2030; …
