Using digital tools for outreach and advocacy in urban development

 As part of the Urban Thinkers Campus, the Digital Media Academy addresses the role of digital media as a tool for advocacy, fundraising, building awareness, and creating new methods for accountability.

For actors within the field of Urban Development, digital media can be used as a connector between peers within their field, potential donors, and supporters both locally and globally. In this sense websites, social media, and other tools can be of significant benefit in development work.
