1) The Public Affairs Committee (PAC) disseminates OECD publications through multiple channels to reach wider audiences, translating summaries into 26 languages.
2) PAC adds value by ensuring OECD publications are noticed through active dissemination strategies, distributing over 17,000 items per year from 400 publications.
3) Without PAC, dissemination of OECD publications would be reduced by over 92.5%, from over 1 million downloads and print books to a small fraction reaching audiences. PAC plays a key role in making OECD knowledge accessible globally.
The document discusses how to increase the reach and audience of OECD publications. It notes that while the audience OECD knows is growing slowly, the potential audience interested in its knowledge is much larger. It analyzes where different audiences, like academics, find information and suggests putting "signs" in those places to increase discoverability. These include search engines, aggregators, and specialized databases. It also discusses translating content and publishing summaries in multiple languages. The document advocates for a more social approach to publishing by making content shareable, embeddable, and even modifiable. This will help increase dissemination of OECD's knowledge to a wider audience.
Counterflows is a 4-day underground music festival in Glasgow featuring a diverse range of artists united by their experimental spirit. The festival aims to create an inclusive space to enjoy unconventional music across carefully selected venues with little scheduling overlap. It will include performances from international artists working in genres like minimalist percussion, improvised folk, and electronic music, as well as discussions, film screenings, and late night parties celebrating experimental sounds from around the world.
The document expresses optimism for the coming year through a series of statements beginning with "that". It envisions the year as glorious with every challenge having support, good luck blessing each day, grey days still being beautiful, and beauty breaking any ice. It wishes that receiving friendship or love will never be out of reach, raging rivers will stay in their course, and life will never be lonely. It presents these sentiments with deep affection and hopes that darkest times will be driven out by color. The document wishes everyone a wonderful new year with health, wealth and happiness.
The document summarizes a workshop on maximizing marketing efforts for electrical distributors.

The document is a lesson plan from an English class at an international school in Cartagena. The lesson focuses on reading comprehension of a story called "Dot and Bob". The story is about a dog named Bob who helps his owner Dot and her mother plant a tree. Bob digs a hole in the ground for the tree since it is too hot for Dot and her mother to dig. The lesson plan provides the reading, questions about the story, and assigns reading it at home as a task.
This study examined the positioning techniques used by political marketers to appeal to young voters in India. The researcher conducted a survey of 46 youth to understand the impact of different techniques. The survey found that banners, flags and paintings had the most influence, followed by processions and rallies. It also found that Facebook was the most popular social media platform and debates on news channels sometimes changed views. However, the time spent on various media did not consistently correlate with their influence on voting decisions. The study provided insight into how political parties can most effectively connect with and influence young Indian voters.

This document summarizes a research paper that examines how Mark Moore's theory of public value can provide an ethical framework to guide businesses taking on political roles beyond corporate social responsibility. The paper discusses how businesses are increasingly engaging in activities traditionally viewed as government activities, like providing public services. It argues public value theory can help businesses make decisions about these new political roles by considering public goods, virtue ethics, and civic virtue. The theory aims to address normative ambiguities around businesses extending into the political realm and provide guidance for individuals within these organizations.

Editor's Notes
The forest that is the internet grows larger every day, making it harder for users to find the wood for the trees: posting and hoping? Is that publishing? Does simply posting something online mean it’ll be found, make an impact? This presentation looks at what it takes to publish online and make an impact.
We might think we know everyone who’s interested in our work – after all, we’re at the centre of many networks, our brand is regularly on the front pages of the world’s press – but, just as more people know who the Queen of England is than the Queen of England can know, so more are interested in our work than we know.
Please draw a map of the internet, as you see it. Indicate your ‘home’.We’re here somewhere – maybe via the little Google fountain in the middle of the drawing? In ‘Library Thing’? The reality is that everyone’s map of the internet is centred on themselves, their family, friends, hobbies as much as their professional interest. We’re not front and centre for more than a very few. This is shown by measuring ‘Reach’:OECD’s daily online reach in the US is around 0.01% which puts us in the top 16,000 of most-popular websites (Source: Alexa)Conclusion: since, for most people, we’re not front-and-centre we must actively promote our work and fight to increase awareness to take a larger share of users’ time online.
Did you know that 80% of the US popularion live within 15 miles of a Starbucks and no-one lives more than 140 miles from a Venti Latte?Just as Starbucks (and WallMart and IKEA and McDonalds . . even Apple) actively take their message to market and build distribution channels and outlets close to their target audiences, so must OECD. Can we get 80% of our audience within three clicks of our publications?
Add in scribd, amazon et al for general publicAdding value: PAC editors and produciton staff working with authors to shape and add sparkle to the pub, marketing and distribution staff to put out the signs, plant the pubs in different forests
Of which, 25% come from the Statistics A-Z page – people looking for the key and country tables, factbook etcBut as a share of total traffic, OECD.org’s share is falling. So where are they all coming from? Let’s look.
Gardner and Inger research reader behaviour among academic and high-level student audiences. They found that academics start their research for scholarly information in eleven places. A post-it and hope strategy would miss 85% of the starting points and signposts used by this audience – PAC covers almost all of these by actively posting metadata and/or full text content into these channels. The result is 122,000 referrals to OECD’s publications a month, 24% of all traffic to our publications.
Other audiences are no different, they each have different online ‘forests’ where they go to find information – this is especially true among professional audiences – law, finance/banking, tax – and more recently policymakers with the launch of Bloomberg Government aimed squarely at those within the Washington Beltway last year. For non-professional audiences (citizens and civil society activists) we use consumer channels like Google Books, Amazon and Scribd.And all the while, PAC is actively using social media to promote and enable audiences to engage, to participate.Just as Starbucks opens close to their customers and uses social media to build audience share, so OECD does the same. And the results are good – around 360,000 readings a month via these non-OECD channels.
Which also means that OECD content is found even when people are googling in their own language (and, of course, the summaries link back to the full publication too)
This chart shows the growth in dissemination over the past decade, driven by a process of continual improvement: editors working with authors on structure and messaging; production and statistical editors adding value with services like Statlinks; marketing and dissemination experts actively seeking out target audiences and building services to suit their needs. It all adds up to more dissemination and greater impact – and all at no cost to the Part I budget.PAC added value means OECD Publications do get noticed – in ever greater numbers.
