How to use social walls as a government institution

Event walls

Use a social wall to create interactive events. Engage with your attendees during open days, fundraisers, special sports events or concerts. A social wall will help you collect and display authentic User-Generated Content, spread the word about your event and make your event much more fun.

Permanent displays

Display a social wall at City Hall, the tourist info or throughout different locations in the city. Share the latest city news, show fun facts about the city or display select posts that people are publishing about the places they visit. By showing what the city has to offer in an innovative way, you will make people want to experience more of it.

Website widgets

Embed a social wall on your website to keep it up to date with content you already created for social media. You can add compelling social proof by featuring employees’ or visitors’ favourite places. It’s also a great way to inform the public about the latest news or raise awareness for a special cause.

Social walls allow us to make user-generated content visible on our websites and convey the look and feel of our country. We can motivate users to post content, especially when we’re running campaigns with specific hashtags.The various walls in different languages make it easier for us to customise our content for each region and language and better target people in each country.

IMO Features a Photo Library on a Social Wall

The IMO set out to create a diverse photo library. To do this, the IMO invited women in the maritime sector to share their photos. The contributions from around the world were collected on a social media wall.

Social Media and Communications Officer

Because our target audience is highly social and likely to be on multiple social media platforms, we thought that a social wall really suited our needs. So we launched the hashtag #MaritimeWomenPhotoShare and to participate, participants could either use the hashtag on Twitter or Instagram or simply submit their photos using an email address we created for that purpose. And with the wall, it created this mosaic of working maritime women which was really empowering and inspiring, and more and more women joined.

Collect content from multiple platforms

User-generated content can help create social trust and transparency for your organisation. Combine it with your own social media posts that inform and educate your audience. Collect the content that you, your citizens and visiting tourists are already sharing every day on social media and use it to keep your website fresh and engage with the public.
