Sustainable Marketing Research

Head: Dr Anne Sharp


Today we are faced with a host of environmental challenges – pollution, loss of biodiversity, and climate change. Our consumption is the cause of much of this.


To tackle these challenges effectively, society needs to make consumption changes. But in order to change, consumers must first understand what they need to do and why.


UniSA’s Ehrenberg-Bass Institute established the Sustainable Marketing Research Group to focus on these issues.


One of the current flagship projects is a partnership role in the new Seafood Cooperative Research Centre where research is being undertaken into the issues associated with seafood purchase and consumption.


Also strong on the research agenda is benchmarking consumers’ knowledge and behaviour in relation to climate change and biodiversity.

Professor Andrew Ehrenberg
(1926 - 2010)


August 2010

We are very sad to lose a legendary figure in marketing, market research and the statistics field. Over his life Professor Andrew Ehrenberg’s contribution to the development of marketing science has been enormous. The Ehrenberg-Bass Institute (with colleagues at the Ehrenberg Centre, London SouthBank) will build on his legacy as we continue to develop empirical generalizations in marketing. 

We are sad to lose this great man who was a pioneer in our field, and a dear friend to his colleagues.
