New York, NY
Save the date for the next installment of the Digital Media Training Series, presented by the NYC CLC; Organizing 2.0; The New York Paid Leave Coalition; and the NYS AFL-CIO:
Microsites are often used to supplement an offline activity or existing website. These sites are a great tool in the arsenal of any union as they are an effective way to spread your message and gain support in organizing and campaigning efforts. In this session, we will discuss how to generate content and explore examples of local unions using micro-sites. Together, we will compose a basic site, incorporating key elements to spark activism in the real world.
This training will be lead by Elizabeth McKenna of IUPAT DC9
