Transport Canada's ecoMOBILITY Program is offering a free bilingual webinar called "Implementing Social Marketing" THIS Wednesday, October 13 from 1-2pm EST. All participants will get a copy of "Changing Transportation Behaviours: A Social Marketing Planning Guide", a new guide designed to help TDM planners and other transportation practitioners implement effective social marketing campaigns.

This webinar will present "Changing Transportation Behaviours: A Social Marketing Planning Guide", a new guide designed to help TDM planners and other transportation practitioners implement effective social marketing campaigns. Please note that the presentation will not focus on the theory behind community-based social marketing (CBSM) but will rather address the practical application of CBSM.

Following the presentation on the new guide, Beth McKechnie, Workplace TDM Coordinator from Resource Conservation Manitoba, will present the results from the social marketing aspects of Winnipeg's WinSmart Showcase, one of the projects funded by Transport Canada's Urban Transportation Showcase Program (UTSP). This project included a social marketing pilot, which was remarkably successful in bringing about modal shifts despite Winnipeg's harsh winter weather and entrenched car culture.
