101 Seminar Report: Social Media in Emergencies CDAC Network (2013)
101 Seminar Report: Social Media in Emergencies: On November 25th 2013 the CDAC Network hosted a 101 Seminar on Social Media for Emergencies. The Seminar was led by Anahi Ayala Iacucci of Internews and Gregory Barrow of WFP, and it was hosted by Plan UK. The CDAC Network 101 Seminar Series is designed to build the capacity of members by improving information sharing amongst members and the wider humanitarian community. The seminars utilise the expertise and experience of members who educate the broader community through face-to-face seminars. Following the seminar, the CDAC Network released a report that highlights content from the presentations and draws out key lessons from the day. The report is separated into two sections; the first section explains why Social Media is useful in emergencies, and the second uses information from case studies and several simulations to examine the challenges of using Social Media in Emergencies.
