In the Go phase, organizations implement their editorial calendar, track metrics to measure objectives, and learn how to improve for the future. The overall goal is to create a social strategy focused on understanding and engaging the target audience.

Unicef corporate communication analysisQianchang Wei
UNICEF utilizes a variety of communication channels including broadcast media, print media, online channels, and traditional channels to communicate with its various stakeholders. Broadcast media like radio and TV have a wide reach but reduced smartphone usage reduced engagement. Print materials in local languages had success in Kyrgyzstan. Online channels like social media and websites are effective but not universal. Traditional channels engage communities but have limited short-term impact. UNICEF strives to use an integrated approach and continually evaluate and improve its communication performance.

Other modern technologies at age 20; imagine how far we’ll go with the consumer-facing internet.
Social media is your embassy; a good website is your home country.
Steady, consistent content is essential to engagement.
Owned content > Facebook’s algorithms.
The big picture is comprised of many, many details.
The perfect tweet or flawless video takes time, effort, and money.
People are your greatest asset – your own colleagues, as well as the people you serve.

If your clients sense you’re open and engaged, they’ll be that way, too. Same goes for your staff.
Principles for Digital Strategy at UNICEF
Digital enables transparency and accountability.
To the online audience, we are one UNICEF with many facets.
We work in a multilingual world. Our content and engagement must reflect that.
Content and engagement efforts should include people with low- or no- internet connectivity.
All products and services should be mobile-first and multiplatform.
Our product approach is agile.
Open standards are at the heart of what we do.
We’ll measure and test our efforts, using data to inform content and engagement choices.
Conversations > Campaigns.
Global frame, local action. Take a global message that national markets/teams can adapt. Messages and calls to action should be easily tailored and localized by language, country.
Have one integrated editorial calendar. Media, marketing, web, social, offline, visuals.
Team: balance all-rounders with deep expertise.
Do fewer things better.
Find the storyteller in the elevator.

Social media is increasingly prevalent in both personal and professional lives. Over half of UK adults use social networks, and nearly all employees use social media for work. While many organizations block social media access, fewer will do so in the future. Social media allows for new forms of collaboration and value creation through crowdsourcing, crowdfunding, social customer care, and open leadership. Adopting social practices can improve knowledge sharing, problem solving, innovation, and employee engagement. Organizations that embrace social media may see benefits like new products and revenue, better business outcomes, and lower employee turnover.
The document provides an overview of social media and how the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) can utilize various social media platforms.

Various businesses have found success using Twitter for direct sales, customer service, public relations, and gaining business intelligence. Effective strategies for companies include listening to conversations, engaging influencers, promoting initiatives, and using Twitter to test products and ideas. Setting clear objectives is important, such as using Twitter for discussion and response to drive engagement.
This document provides an overview of a discussion on building competency in social organizations and communities. It includes frameworks to help plan social media strategies and budgets for 2012, trends influencing content creation and recruitment, examples of successful social organizations, and takeaways and resources.

Creating a new sea story - a first aid kit for ocean communicationsCharityComms
The document discusses creating effective communication strategies for raising awareness about ocean conservation. It recommends establishing that the ocean has health, showing how human health is connected, communicating past harms, focusing on solutions and stewardship, being creative, and repeating key messages. The Marine CoLAB aims to cultivate public understanding of ocean systems and solutions through collaboration, experimentation, and framing issues around shared values. Their "changing health" story and reframing the ocean as the planet's body or climate's heart are presented as promising communication approaches.
This document summarizes trends affecting charities and nonprofit organizations. It discusses how the COVID-19 pandemic may accelerate changes to flexible working arrangements. Younger generations are having different views of charities that organizations need to understand. While Brexit continues to impact politics, charities must work to build relationships with new MPs and consider how to engage Conservative voters. Mental health and environmental issues are rising up public and political agendas. Charities are experimenting with pop-up events and spoken word audio to engage new audiences.

Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024Hiroshi SHIBATA
I develop the Ruby programming language, RubyGems, and Bundler, which are package managers for Ruby. Today, I will introduce how to enhance the security of your application using open-source software (OSS) examples from Ruby and RubyGems.
The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS.
Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application.
I'll share insights into how the Ruby and RubyGems core team works to keep our ecosystem safe. By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of how to safeguard your code.
5th LF Energy Power Grid Model Meet-up SlidesDanBrown980551
5th Power Grid Model Meet-up
It is with great pleasure that we extend to you an invitation to the 5th Power Grid Model Meet-up, scheduled for 6th June 2024. This event will adopt a hybrid format, allowing participants to join us either through an online Mircosoft Teams session or in person at TU/e located at Den Dolech 2, Eindhoven, Netherlands. The meet-up will be hosted by Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), a research university specializing in engineering science & technology.
Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.
