Building a Solid Social Media StrategyAIA National
Every social media marketing tool, whether it’s a blog, Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Foursquare, or other social networking site, is simply a communication tool. These tools, when wielded skillfully, can create communications “magic.” Yet without direction, focus, and an underlying strategy, they are at best distractions from the business at hand and, at worst, an addictive time suck.

The imminent rise of the everyday European activistBrett Kobie
The document discusses the rise of everyday activism in Europe and the United States. It notes that cultural tensions have been rising for years due to parallel cultures and information sources. The election of Donald Trump unleashed these tensions. Now, cultural red lines have been crossed, motivating more everyday citizens to activism. Examples of recent European activist campaigns in various countries are provided. The document argues that non-governmental organizations should cultivate everyday activists, while companies and lobbyists will need to clearly articulate their values to these activists. If coordinated globally, everyday activists may be able to enact change beyond any one country or continent by pressuring multinational companies.

5 ways the (digital) Brussels Bubble will change, as of this weekBrett Kobie
1) Twitter will become the dominant social media channel for discussing EU policy as it allows stories to break, spread across Europe, and fade away.
2) Personal brands will become increasingly important for those wanting a voice in EU policy as only those seen as trustworthy, knowledgeable, and well-intentioned will be given access.
3) Storytelling skills will grow in importance for public affairs practitioners as a faster policy environment demands clear, simple explanations rather than technical ones.
5 ways the (digital) Brussels Bubble will change, as of this weekBrett Kobie
1) Twitter will become the dominant social channel for discussing EU policy as personal brands and compelling stories told through simple visuals like infographics become more important for influencing policymakers.
2) Public affairs practitioners will need strong storytelling skills to explain policy concisely as the pace of discussions accelerates.
3) Communications strategies will focus more on consistent narratives distributed across multiple channels rather than traditional meetings or brochures.

AHMR is an interdisciplinary peer-reviewed online journal created to encourage and facilitate the study of all aspects (socio-economic, political, legislative and developmental) of Human Mobility in Africa. Through the publication of original research, policy discussions and evidence research papers AHMR provides a comprehensive forum devoted exclusively to the analysis of contemporaneous trends, migration patterns and some of the most important migration-related issues.
This report explores the significance of border towns and spaces for strengthening responses to young people on the move. In particular it explores the linkages of young people to local service centres with the aim of further developing service, protection, and support strategies for migrant children in border areas across the region. The report is based on a small-scale fieldwork study in the border towns of Chipata and Katete in Zambia conducted in July 2023. Border towns and spaces provide a rich source of information about issues related to the informal or irregular movement of young people across borders, including smuggling and trafficking. They can help build a picture of the nature and scope of the type of movement young migrants undertake and also the forms of protection available to them. Border towns and spaces also provide a lens through which we can better understand the vulnerabilities of young people on the move and, critically, the strategies they use to navigate challenges and access support.
The findings in this report highlight some of the key factors shaping the experiences and vulnerabilities of young people on the move – particularly their proximity to border spaces and how this affects the risks that they face. The report describes strategies that young people on the move employ to remain below the radar of visibility to state and non-state actors due to fear of arrest, detention, and deportation while also trying to keep themselves safe and access support in border towns. These strategies of (in)visibility provide a way to protect themselves yet at the same time also heighten some of the risks young people face as their vulnerabilities are not always recognised by those who could offer support.
In this report we show that the realities and challenges of life and migration in this region and in Zambia need to be better understood for support to be strengthened and tuned to meet the specific needs of young people on the move. This includes understanding the role of state and non-state stakeholders, the impact of laws and policies and, critically, the experiences of the young people themselves. We provide recommendations for immediate action, recommendations for programming to support young people on the move in the two towns that would reduce risk for young people in this area, and recommendations for longer term policy advocacy.
Combined Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) Vessel List.Christina Parmionova
The best available, up-to-date information on all fishing and related vessels that appear on the illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing vessel lists published by Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) and related organisations. The aim of the site is to improve the effectiveness of the original IUU lists as a tool for a wide variety of stakeholders to better understand and combat illegal fishing and broader fisheries crime.
To date, the following regional organisations maintain or share lists of vessels that have been found to carry out or support IUU fishing within their own or adjacent convention areas and/or species of competence:
Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR)
Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT)
General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM)
Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC)
International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT)
Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC)
Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO)
North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC)
North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC)
South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO)
South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO)
Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement (SIOFA)
Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC)
The Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List merges all these sources into one list that provides a single reference point to identify whether a vessel is currently IUU listed. Vessels that have been IUU listed in the past and subsequently delisted (for example because of a change in ownership, or because the vessel is no longer in service) are also retained on the site, so that the site contains a full historic record of IUU listed fishing vessels.
Unlike the IUU lists published on individual RFMO websites, which may update vessel details infrequently or not at all, the Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List is kept up to date with the best available information regarding changes to vessel identity, flag state, ownership, location, and operations.
