Session Overview
This panel explores how the fields of behavioural science, strategic communication and stakeholder engagement can work together to generate positive communication outcomes.

They discuss the similarities and differences between the three disciplines, and how we can use this understanding to foster effective communication practices. They also discuss what each of the three disciplines can learn from one another.
The three panelists pinpoint the skill of effective listening as a shared goal of the three disciplines, and discuss what each discipline can bring to the table to promote systemic listening practices. They also discuss the importance of behaviour change, and critique information campaigns that fail to place behaviour change at the core of communications messaging.
