18. What is Social Media?
“In an affluent society, we value our
time and our money, so before we
invest either of them in a purchase
or an activity, we want to know if it
is worthwhile. To figure that
out, we turn to other
people, listening to their advice and
observing their behaviour.”

20. World Development Movement's Christine
Haigh on www.theguardian.co.uk
“Social media has the benefit of reaching a
huge number of people, and spurring them
into taking positive action – if you get it right.
We wanted to give people something that
was genuinely funny and interesting to get
their attention, engage them in the issue
and, hopefully, ask them to take a moment to
send an email to the chancellor.
For us, it was important that the very term
"food speculation" made it into the public
consciousness . . .”

21. World Development Movement's Christine
Haigh on www.theguardian.co.uk
“I'm delighted to say the campaign looks

type, 1,400 people have emailed George
Osborne's office.”

23. Resourcing Social Media
• The issue isn’t money

time to create a BIG difference.

the high street
• Start a discussion: With online
petitions, you can interact with your
signers
• Build a lasting community. @reachfurther @lizcable

41. Caring = Sharing = Caring
Writing for The Economist, Sheryl Sandberg, COO of
Facebook, noted that many social media users post
photos on their sites so that friends and family, often
hundreds or thousands of miles away, can see them.
“They share because they care.” On the flip side of
this, people are now sharing stories many of which
provoke strong feelings and encourage people to act.
Campaigns can be started this way,: “They care
because they share.” Sandberg also referred to
Iceland where the Government, drafting a new
constitution, used social media to put the figurative
pen in the hands of its citizens; and The Arab Spring
where (mainly younger) people used social media to
give individual citizens a voice that had to be heard.
