Ways to Use the Platform to Cover Your Event

There are many ways to use the tools on the Platform to get the most from having online coverage of your event

'Reporters' are in charge

You can choose writers attending your event or 'reporters' who will be responsible for posting articles and updates from the event when possible. The Operating Team assists reporters with editing, photo editing and ensures the information added is well integrated onto the Platform. Who you choose to report on your event is up to you. We request that he/she has a good command of the English language.

Options available to you

There are several options on how to use the Platform to cover your event. You or your 'reporters' can:
  • post quick updates from the event after each presentation, discussion or workshop;
  • post a reflective daily 'recap' of the day's discussions, workshop outcomes, presentations, etc. that summarises the outcomes of the day;
  • post feedback articles on presentations, workshops, discussions, together with a selected group of participants who provide their comments;
  • start a separate online discussion for the Platform audience (not attending the event) to raise questions, comments and ideas that can be fed into the presentations, discussions and workshops at your event;
  • use the Platform after your event is over to continue discussions with participants, and to stay in touch.

You can also

  • collect photos of the event for a photo gallery (the Operating Team will assist you);
  • post video from the event on Youtube, which can be linked to the Platform (the Operating Team will assist you in linking Youtube video to the Platform);
  • use the Platform to share powerpoint presentations and other documents from the event online.
