Some	
  principles	
  
1.	
  Online	
  communiCes	
  are	
  
       communiCes	
  too!	
  
2.	
  Engage	
  people	
  on	
  their	
  terms,	
  
                 not	
  yours.	
  
3.

Openess	
  
Transparency

  Don’t	
  assume	
  that	
  everyone	
  is	
  
                   offline.	
  
5.

The	
  toolkit	
  
1.	
  Go

2.	
  Right	
  tool,	
  right

This	
  stuff	
  works	
  
You	
  must	
  understand	
  why	
  you’re	
  
          doing	
  it	
  though!	
  
Think	
  strategically	
  
What	
  are	
  you	
  trying	
  to	
  achieve?	
  

What	
  are	
  you	
  asking	
  people	
  to	
  do?	
  
Change	
  percepCons?	
  

 Change	
  behaviour?	
  

 Improve	
  services?	
  
In	
  summary:	
  
The	
  change	
  is	
  happening:	
  deal	
  with	
  it	
  

      Solve	
  the	
  parCcipaCon	
  deficit	
  

 Know	
  why	
  you’re	
  doing	
  what	
  you’re	
  
                    doing	
  
Thank	
  you	
  for	
  listening!
