ir behaviour change communication campaigns. The review also considered best practice for providing evidence of the effectiveness of these campaigns and explored whether these practices could be translated to road safety. Overall, the health and safety literature indicate that there is no single model for best practice in evaluating communication campaigns but there are some general principles that are highly germane to road safety: using a recognised model/theory of behaviour change, multiple measurement methods, measuring target behaviours at each stage, using a control group not exposed to the campaign, and identifying factors that can influence the likelihood of the desired behaviour. While some direct and indirect objective measures of behaviour change were available, by far the most common measure was selfreport surveys. This set of evaluation tools, and their limitations, are consistent with the road safety experience. In conclusion, given adequate resources, all health and safety domains, including road safety, might improve the quality of their evaluations with sound experimental designs and the increased use of objective forms of behaviour measurement, aided by advances in affordable technology."

"[...] Lamentablemente, en nuestro país, las teorías asociadas al mercadeo y la publicidad social son escasas, y los teóricos que se pueden asociar a estas propuestas son, por lo mismo, bastante limitados. En contraposición, y muy a pesar de que Colombia cuente con pocos investigadores, las camp

añas de publicidad y mercadeo social que se han puesto en marcha han sido bastante prolíficas, y por demás exitosas. Las necesidades sociales de un país en vía de desarrollo requieren que se implemente una variedad relevante de campañas, muchas de las cuales han recibido premios internacionales, o simplemente han recibido el reconocimiento de una gran parte de la población colombiana. Desde esta perspectiva, no podemos olvidar campañas como: la caspa y la adicción a la droga, las estrellas negras, sin preservativos ni pío, la tengo viva, inteligencia vial, algunos animales no usan casco, ríos de luz, entre muchas otras. Por estas razones, un texto como este en el que se describen diferentes teorías de la publicidad y el mercadeo social, intenta aportar al vacío existente en materia de conceptualización. Además, no solo se trata de una publicación cien por ciento teórica, pues también se pueden encontrar algunas investigaciones con resultados empíricos, resultado de trabajo de campo en diferentes ámbitos del mercadeo social y la publicidad social. Estos aportes empíricos permiten contrastar las prácticas sociales con los desarrollos teóricos y con la aplicación de cada uno de los conceptos más versátiles de estos procesos teórico conceptuales. Además de los enfoques teóricos y prácticos, este libro aborda una cantidad interesante de conceptos que le permitirán al lector conocer los últimos términos que se manejan hoy por hoy en el contexto empresarial y universitario. El mercadeo con causa, el marketing social corporativo, el greenwashing, los sweatshops, stakeholders, sostenibilidad, los adoptantes objetivos, los agentes de cambio, son solo algunos de los conceptos que se podrán encontrar en esta publicación y permitirán a los lectores enriquecer los conocimientos que sobre publicidad y mercadeo social tengan."

The impact evaluation in Senegal focused on a key pillar of the MaM campaign, namely town hall events, which screened video testimonies of migrant returnees followed by interactive question and answer sessions with migrant returnees .. The impact evaluation provides evidence that peer-to-peer communication has measurable effects on potential migrants’ perception and intention, which are key prerequisites for safe migration decisions. This report focuses on the main impacts of the MaM events. Future analyses will further explore the rich datasets collected in this study." (Executive summary, page 1-2)

In terms of a specific strategic approach to media, 61% of the organizations who took part in the questionnaire had a strategic plan for dealing with media; 51% had an annual work plan. However, only 42% stated that they allocated an annual budget for media. In other words, they used funds which are not deducted from project grants. Turning to social media usage, we found that 70% of the organizations tried to finance content through their networks at least once, whereas fifty-four percent of the organizations launched digital awareness campaigns on social media platforms; forty-nine percent of these digital campaigns were part of a media plan. Looking at the prevalence of social media platforms and how they are most widely used, we found that all organizations, even the ones with no website, usually had a Facebook account. In fact, 100% of the organizations surveyed had a Facebook account, hence this was not subject to testing in relation to the other influencing factors. YouTube followed with 75% of the organizations having an account. Fifty-one percent of the organizations had a Twitter account, while 27% had an Instagram account and 18% had a LinkedIn account. Two of the organizations used Soundcloud and two others used Flickr. Vimeo and Google+ were only used by a single organization for each one." (Results and conclsions, page 56-7)

It shows that media continues to be an important element in activist communication. The book demonstrates how the activists' use of tactics, such as consciousness raising groups, demonstrations, festivals, petitions, magazines, periodicals and books influenced both policy and cultural changes."

of predominant actors, which have been systematized to identify possible mistakes and to help determine more effective actions with a greater capacity for mobilization. We applied a mixed content analysis combined with a semiotic model to evaluate the presence or absence of the different actors and their relevance in each case. Several lines of discourse have been reiterated accross the 50 campaigns analysed: Curbing the demand for prostitution as a priority objective; the centrality of victims in the representations; the role of the consumer of paid sex as an accomplice to the crime; and the correlation between prostitution and human trafficking. We will also examine how these issues relate to the broader dispute on the status of prostitution in Spain. This will require a conceptual shift away from educational and social-oriented communication towards the structural causes, collective responsibility and transformative justice frameworks."
