description This article suggests a hybrid model for entertainment‐education, where the integrated activation of communication channels across different levels of influence can increase the reach and effectiveness of entertainment‐education campaigns.

By taking advantage of micro‐, meso‐ and macrolevel opportunities to improve campaign reach, as described in this model, entertainment‐education producers can capitalize on the interconnected storytelling network upon which their target communities rely for the fulfillment of their everyday goals.
