Alcohol Marketing and Its Impact on Gender and Social Norms

Because when I think of marketing- and it's been talked about a lot today- I think about advertising.
Ever thought about how alcohol marketing shapes our perceptions of gender and social norms? This episode of the Alcohol Alert Podcast takes you through a fascinating series of lectures from the IAS Alcohol Marketing Conference. Chaired by Eric Carlin from Scottish Health Action on Alcohol Problems, the session titled 'Alcohol marketing, disrupting social norms' brings together experts Vivienne MacLaren, Amanda Atkinson, and Michaela Jones.
These speakers dive into how alcohol marketing influences gender relations, particularly focusing on its impact on women in sports, the perpetuation of sexist norms, and the role of social media in intensifying these effects. The discussions don't stop there; they also touch on the effectiveness of anti-violence campaigns and the critical need to understand how marketing affects personal identity. Personal recovery stories add a compelling layer, making this episode not just informative but also deeply human.
If you're curious about the hidden ways alcohol marketing affects society, this episode is a must-listen.
