FIGHT FAKE NEWS WITH AN INFORMATION HUB

Unfortunately, social media is a playground for fake news. Fight it by setting the facts straight. Gather valuable and reliable information on a social wall so citizens have a trustworthy source from which they can get their news. Create a social hub for it, which then acts as a reliable source and contact point.

INCREASE YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA REACH WITH HASHTAG CAMPAIGNS

Use community- and event-specific hashtags to spread your messages. When people post using your hashtag, it will spread to their followers. This way, you will reach an audience that you may not usually be able to access. You will connect to new voters, raise awareness for your cause, and increase your social media reach.

COMMUNICATE MORE EFFICIENTLY DURING A CRISIS

Social media is a reliable channel during a crisis when everyone is overwhelmed. It allows you to easily and quickly reach out to your target audience. Important messages can be shown in real-time on a social feed to ensure that everybody has access to the latest information. It can also give you a place to monitor feedback and mentions of crisis-related posts.

CREATE INTERACTIVE DIGITAL EXPERIENCES

Use social media to present your city, parks, theatres, museums or stadiums in a unique way. Display those posts on a social wall to create an extraordinary first impression of your city for visitors. Allow those you can’t physically come to visit to experience your amazing sightseeing spots online. Provide historical background information on the social wall to broaden the experience.

Why social media is a valuable communication tool

Social media has become one of the strongest communication channels for governments over the last years. According to the Pew Research Center, 55% of U.S. adults get their news from social media. No wonder then that the OECD report shows that 85% of the U.S. public institutions are recognising that fact and are using social media to distribute information. Sources: OECD iLibrary, Pew Research Center 1 and 2.
