Digital advocacy is increasingly important for influencing policymakers in Brussels. Over 80% of MEPs regularly visit interest group websites and use search engines. Content must match the values of constituents and be presented emotionally, as political debates have become more diffuse and value-based. Digital tools allow organizations to gather intelligence, deliver narratives to supporters, and build alliances. However, some organizations doubt resources or support for digital efforts or fear potential backlash. Examples show how crowdsourcing, crisis mitigation, and mobilizing support can work.
Presentation by Hanneke Verhelst, public affairs consultant at Fleishman-Hillard on Digital Public Affairs at the Hanze University in Groningen (April 2012).
What if you could really have your say on EU policies... and be heard by politicians? We believe you can! We created Politix EU (eu.politix.io), a one-stop shop platform that makes citizens aware of the EU policies shaping their everyday lives. The main goal is to close the feedback loop between politicians and citizens, by showing the latter what an abstract legislative proposal could mean for their lives and to give them the chance to share their opinion on a given proposal with policy-makers and the community around them. Representative democracy is supposed to be based on interactions between citizens and decision makers. In the digital age, an absence of interaction between these players appears outdated and unnecessary.
Presentation the Hague University on Digital Public Affairs, 14 october 2012Hanneke Verhelst
On Monday 14 October I gave lecture on Digital Public Affairs to students of The Hague University. The presentation is updated with figures from a research on the usage of digital information sources by Dutch MPs. For more details on this research please check: http://fleishman.nl/2012/08/online-communication-important-for-mps-points-of-view/?lang=en
It's 2015 and MEPs use social media. Is that news? Probably not. But how do MEPs use online tools and more generally, how do they consume information and prefer to interact with stakeholders? Follow #MEPDigital and @FleishmanEU for a steady stream of insights on what these results mean for public affairs professionals.

El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
