What should we do to influence large groups of people to change their behaviour? The most comprehensive synthesis of studies on behaviour change ever undertaken has been published & offers some clear steers:
1) For behaviour change at an individual level:
- giving accurate information or trying to change beliefs is less effective
- providing social support, tapping into individuals’ behavioural skills/habits & removing practical obstacles to behaviour is more effective
2) For behaviour change at a social/structural level:
- interventions seeking to increase trustworthiness or targeting knowledge, general attitudes, beliefs, or mandates or other administrative/legal sanctions have negligible effect
- access to resources that facilitate behaviour change & social support have the greatest impact

Kindness Crew Day 2! Today we popped up at Sydney/Sydney Eye Hospital at @SEastSydHealth to engage staff, visitors, patients, students and community to share what Kindness meant to them and what are the actions and moments that matter. An overwhelmingly fun afternoon of connection and conversation. Thanks to the Kindness Crew @suzymurrayRN@LucyHaver Ann Jasmin & Sarah. Loved the tunes of @HushFoundation_ by Slava Grigoryan.
Ahh the memories! Look at all these amazing NSW folks who were at Compassion Revolution Conf in 2022. We're hanging out to see you all again in October in Melbs for Making Work Beautiful. #compassion#revolutionaries
