  • HIV Prevention Ambassador Training Package for Adolescent Girls and Young Women This Training Package Was Developed by the OPTIONS Consortium and Collective Action
    HIV Prevention Ambassador Training Package for Adolescent Girls and Young Women This training package was developed by the OPTIONS Consortium and Collective Action. The OPTIONS Consortium partners who contributed to the development of the training package include FHI 360, AVAC, LVCT Health in Kenya, Pangaea Zimbabwe AIDS Trust in Zimbabwe, and Wits Reproductive Health and HIV Institute in South Africa. The Optimizing Prevention Technology Introduction On Schedule (OPTIONS) Consortium is a five-year cooperative agreement funded by the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) and the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). OPTIONS Consortium partners are conducting a range of activities to support the rollout and scale-up of oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV prevention in Kenya, South Africa, Zimbabwe, and globally. A critical component of OPTIONS’ work is ensuring adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) can access and effectively use oral PrEP for HIV prevention. Empowering AGYW with the knowledge, skills and agency to discuss HIV prevention with their peers, partners, families and communities is key to normalizing oral PrEP so that AGYW can successfully use it to protect themselves from HIV. We would love to hear how you’ve used this training package. Please email us at [email protected].

  • Target Audience Definition and Analysis
    AD PLAN Smartwater: Made from a Big Idea By: Avinanda Mukherjee, Hao Wang, Jonathan De Costa &Valentine Boisriveaud Situation Analysis The category: •Highly saturated and competitive product category •The bottle of water market has declined. •In 2011, sales of bottled water are estimated at $12.1 billion, which represents a growth of 5% in current prices during 2006-11. After factoring in inflation, bottled water sales declined 1% during this period (Mintel). •Explanation for this recession: •The market has faced a number of challenges such as the high rate of unemployment among the key consumer groups, increasing competition from private labels, and consumer recognition of high-sugar status of enhanced/flavored waters. •The recession and ensuing slow recovery prompted consumers to turn to an almost- free bottled water alternative: tap water. •the increasing competition from private labels as well as consumers’ recognition of the fact that many brands are as sugary as other non-alcoholic beverages have created the slow decline of the consummation of bottle of water. In fact, many consumers swapped high-calorie beverages such as soda for enhanced/flavored water to reduce sugar in their diets. •If the market of bottled water is in decline, the consumption of bottled water seems to have increased since 2009. •Bottled water market has experienced volume consumption growth during 2009-11; however, bottled water sales remained sluggish in 2011. The market needs to address the issue of price promotion as well as the key consumer attrition as blacks, teens, and Hispanics appear to moving away from this category. (Mintel May 2012 report on bottled water) Situation Analysis The category: •Foundation of private labels.

    QUARTER 1 JANUARY 2012 NEW THINKING, DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES Cultural innovation: triumph of a better ideology Douglas Holt and Douglas Cameron NEVER WASTE A GOOD CRISIS Sir Terry Leahy QUARTER 1 QUARTER 2012 JANUARY ACCOUNTABILITY IS NOT ENOUGH Rory Sutherland THROUGH THE GLASS CEILING Janet Hull 1 cover.indd 1 28/11/2011 19:34:31 Market Leader_Experienica.HR.pdf 1 11/11/2011 13:05 Editorial Keeping brands healthy i rEcEntly attended a lecture on the applications of neuroscience to marketing. All the data marketers will ever need, it was claimed, can now be obtained from ‘neurometrics’ – via MRI scanning, EEG measurement and eye-tracking devices. I listened to the lengthening list of uses with mounting disquiet and an article formed in my mind entitled ‘Caution: neuroscience may be dangerous to the health of your brand’. The lead article in this issue provides the explanation of why the skills required for brand building live in a parallel universe. Douglas Holt and Douglas Cameron in ‘Cultural innovation: triumph of a better ideology’ look to anthropology for inspiration. It is commonplace to say that brands live in the mind (as opposed to the factory). But where they really live is in culture, in society’s norms, values, codes and practices. And while yes, neuroscience and anthropology can exist together, the danger is in what we qualitative researchers call ‘physics envy’ (the need to elevate market research to the level of the pure sciences). Put access to the brain – the human version of the Rosetta Stone – together with lots of gadgetry that measures things and before you know it, the new and intriguing drives out the old but essential.
