Online TICTeC event - Beyond websites: How pro-democracy projects reach their audiences

[Gemma Moulder]

Hi everyone,

We'll be hosting a few TICTeC gatherings online in the coming months, and we'd like to invite you all to join us if you're interested!

Here's info on our next one in a couple of weeks:

Beyond websites: How pro-democracy projects reach their audiences
Online | Wednesday 24th September | 13:00-14:00 (UK GMT+1)
Register on Eventbrite »

At this gathering we’ll hear directly from practitioners running civic and pro-democracy tech initiatives from across the world.

They’ll share the strategies they’re using to reach people where they are, ensure their services remain accessible and relevant, and find new ways to track impact in this changing digital landscape.

We’ll also discuss how organisations deal with fewer direct site visits, and challenges they may, or may not, have with this.

We’ll be joined by three great speakers:

• Ana Arevadze from Forset in Georgia will talk about their work with social media influencers to inform and educate Georgian youth on voting and democratic information.

• Ufuoma Nnamdi-Udeh from Enough is Enough and Shine Your Eye in Nigeria will share how they have leveraged social media, chatbots and messaging services to share accurate democratic information with citizens.

• Joseph Tahinduka from ParliamentWatch Uganda will speak about working with infomediaries such as local radio and journalists to get parliamentary information to a wider audience, as well as their usage of social media and messaging apps.
  

And there will be time for Q&A and a chat :)

And if you can't make it, we'll record the session and share it afterwards.

We hope to see you there!

All the best,

Gemma.
