To capitalize on the momentum created by Ann Dowsett Johnston’s memoir Drink and CBC’s documentary film Girls’ Night Out, Innovate partnered with CBC, White Pine Pictures, and the TELUS Fund to create the #RethinkTheDrink Talkback Tour.

what we did
Peer-to Peer Talkback Tour | Paid Reach | Social Media Community Management | Digital Video Production | Harm Reduction Legacy Toolkit | Graphics for Print and Online
With stops at 22 colleges and universities across the country, we organized a peer-to-peer talkback tour and impact campaign, featuring custom video content and marketing materials. We created a legacy toolkit to keep the conversation going and combat binge-drinking culture after the in-person tour wrapped. This toolkit resource continues to be in circulation.
