My name is Linda Hauns, I’m a Digital Marketer based in Queensland, Australia. I’m passionate about social marketing as it has the power to tackle complex social issues and create positive social change. The drivers for behaviour change fascinate me and how research combined with industry knowledge can tailor campaigns for sustained social change.

I believe that sharing insights between social marketing researchers, industry experts and the public is crucial in maximising the value of social marketing to facilitate social progress. Projects on environmental sustainability, climate change, sustainable food consumption and human rights are of special interest to me. 

I enjoy writing thought provoking content that challenges the status quo and the chance to stimulate participation and discussion around important topics and aspects of social marketing highly motivates me. I have been involved with several not-for-profit organisations and look forward to completing my own social marketing research project in the future.
