In this context, digital technology is increasingly used to provide access to documentary heritage but this activity also leads to a series of changes in how documents are understood and handled. Starting from the observation that the conceptual and practical changes triggered by digital technology in the “Memory of the World” do not seem to accurately reflect its stated philosophy, this research pursues the aim to critically analyze the possibilities and limits it offers. This analysis is facilitated by a conceptual framework anchored in the medium theory of Harold Innis and his concepts of medium, bias, space and time, and balance, which serve as analytical lenses to closely study selected aspects of digital technology and their influence. Despite popular beliefs that digital technology is most suitable for universal access, the findings of this present research lead to the observation that this cannot really be the case, and it reveals that an over- emphasis on the technical possibilities of digital access is not supportive of the overall purpose of the “Memory of the World”, leading to the narrowing down of its potential relevance. At first glance, this may suggest not recommending at all the use of digital technology. However, acknowledging that each medium has both limits and possibilities, instead of rejecting digital technology the study searches for solutions that may assist with integrating it in the “Memory of the World” in accordance with its overall purpose and philosophy. To this end, three recommendations are elaborated, the same conceptual framework that revealed the limits of digital technology being applied to construct on their possibilities. In order to motivate why following these recommendations would be necessary the study concludes by shifting attention from the relevance of digital technology in the “Memory of the World” Programme to the relevance of the Programme in a world changed by digital technology. v Acknowledgments If I were asked how this present dissertation has come to fruition, I would perhaps say that it required

The strategy is a framework to enable project members to promote eLTER and its outputs, to engage with stakeholders over relevant issues and to help eLTER to best meet user needs. 3. Whilst this strategy will be implemented in the context of the eLTER project, and therefore the main focus will be on the activities and outputs of that project, some communication will also concern the broader LTER-Europe network and the European Critical Zone Observatories community.

Objective of the Communication Strategy Key Issue: How do we tackle the image problem of the national TVET and LM Programme? In order to guarantee a successful positioning of the TVET and LM Programme in the public and among all partners and stakeholders a communication strategy that contains several instruments and measures will be implemented throughout the next two years. This demands a special focus on rolling planning to ensure a planning that is always up to date and adjusted to changes of the environment. The objective of this communication strategy is to strengthen the public image of the TVET and LM programme among current and potential partners and the public. According to the manifold fields of activities a coherent and clear public profile and image of the entire programme and all its components/core processes needs to be communicated to the public and all partners and stakeholders.

Communication strategies is a book about the verbal and non-verbal ways and means that speakers and listeners employ in oral interaction in a second or foreign language (L2), when they have to face problems due to their lack or insufficient knowledge of the linguistic, communicative and cultural codes of the L2.

  • Overview Outputs of This Training Module Course Materials
    Module 3 & 7: Developing an impact strategy and creating communication out put of the IEA ( DRAFT) Overview This module will focus on methods to position and deliver a national IEA fi ndings and recommendation and creating communication of it. This can have real impact on environmental policy and practice at a series of levels, ranging from local to national. Why bother with developing an impact strategy and creating communication of the IEA outputs? Each day the general people and decision-makers get numerous text information. This involves times to read out of 24 hours of his day. Simply providing yet another report to your senior bureaucrats and political leaders won’t be enough to ensure that they read your fi ndings, let alone act upon them. Before you start producing your main report and other products, you need to make a series of important decisions. By identifying your target audience(s), you will be better able to shape your message and select the right content, and later, the right presentation format. By carefully considering our budget, you will be better and more able to make realistic decisions about the kind of product you feel will be most benefi cial. You will have to decide what kinds of information products best suit your message. We want to take you through the steps that will help you determine how to engage the right people to listen to you and respond to your work. This impact process takes time; and involves a real emphasis on being clear and strategic in identifying the changes that you want to see as a result of your assessment and how well the fi ndings can be communicated.
