Social media changed the way we engage a community for a cause. There are now endless possibilities to create, engage & empower people, from all over the world, to act. With the prominence of digital media, digital communicators can use social media platforms to send their messaging to anyone from a thousand miles away. Influencers can raise awareness of a cause by reaching out to their followers. When working together, they can start a movement. This is a networking session to introduce influencers to digital communicators, strategists, and managers who can potentially collaborate together to work on social good issues, causes, and projects. We will also discuss the best practices when working on joint projects.
