2 PHE Digital Strategy

3 Using innovative new technologies to change behaviour Our audiences are living in an ever more digital, online and connected world. Technology is influencing and changing how they behave, socialise, receive and share news and information, shop and relax. We will evolve our approach with new strategies, tools, and techniques. Digital is ubiquitous: 92% have been online in the past month; activities like grocery shopping are moving into digital space Our Change4Life Sugar Accumulator on mysupermarket.com visualises, in real time, the sugar, fat and salt parents are adding to their baskets, and serves up healthier swaps The technology industry is using artificial intelligence to predict what we will want to see and serve us appropriate content We have already entered the AI market via chat bots; we will also seek more strategic relationships with major technology partners People spend more time looking at their mobile phones than their TV screens; 6 in 10 check their mobile within 5 mins of waking We are providing a range of apps to support healthier lifestyles, for example our Days Off app calculates calorie and financial savings from users reducing alcohol consumption People s expectations are being reset by Amazon, Uber and Deliveroo: they expect a frictionless, seamless user experience The Stoptober Stop Bot provides frictionless sign up, and in-channel support; it applies behavioural science to help people stick to their quit attempt Technology can apply leverage at key points to influence and incentivise behaviour change Our Active 10 Mobile Lunch Challenge uses behavioural science - incentives chunking and loss aversion - to encourage people to walk briskly for ten minutes
