Online Discussion Tomorrow: Conducting Activism Online

December 15, 2008 | Read Time: 1 minute

The explosion in online communications tools has created a seemingly infinite number of opportunities for advocacy groups to spread their message. At the same time, charities face new challenges, especially as they seek to ensure their messages aren’t lost under a crush of information.

How can your organization stand out from the crowd and effectively use online tools to spread its message? What are some of the best practices in online activism? What can you do to stay ahead of the curve?

For answers to those questions and others, join us on Tuesday, December 16, at noon Eastern time when our guest will be Tom Watson, author of the new book CauseWired: Plugging In, Getting Involved, Changing the World.

The Chronicle’s online discussions are free and open to everyone. People who ask questions in advance have a better chance of getting answers.
