About us

We are a group of Australian and New Zealand (ANZ) marketing academics and research scholars who aim to provide an avenue for interested scholars to collaborate and drive knowledge at the intersection of Marketing and the SDGs.

Our purpose

This network includes marketing academics from ANZ who are passionate about researching and teaching the SDGs in marketing. 

We advocate for the marketing academia and practice to be proactive, strategic, and explicit in engaging with the SDGs. Marketing has unique characteristics to do this, including:

  • an intimate understanding of consumers, the ability to develop compelling, persuasive, authentic communications
  • the ability to differentiate products and services, allowing marketing to enable a greater understanding and dissemination of this knowledge to assist in achieving these goals.

Marketing plays a critical boundary spanning role between the organisation and various stakeholders including; suppliers and the broader community.

The Network’s main purpose is the advocacy and facilitation of marketing academics to engage in SDGs through research and education.

How this will be achieved

  • to identify research priority areas at the interface of marketing and the SDGs
  • to develop collaborative research partnerships with marketing scholars who are interested in the SDGs in ANZ
  • to recognise research from ANZ academics and provide pathways for publication and research support
  • to be a point of contact for industry partners wishing to research or apply SDGs in their businesses

  • Creating an environment to share and disseminate resources across ANZMAC
  • Reviewing curriculum in undergraduate and postgraduate courses through an SDG lens
  • Explore the potential for developing courses/units or programs with an SDG focus (e.g., Doctorate in Sustainable Development at Curtin University)
  • Collating and sharing resources to ensure ANZ education in marketing on SDGs in world-class

  • Provide capacity-building opportunities for students related to SDGs.
  • Recognising SDG impact through student awards
  • Student leadership forums
