\n<\/u>Council communication teams can learn about the cutting-edge digital work going on across local government thanks to a newly-launched online resource.<\/p>\n
The Local Government Association and Comms2point0 have launched Digital Councils, a hub for local government on all things social media.<\/p>\n
The resource includes guidance on all elements of social media from getting to grips with Twitter and other social networks to building a digital strategy, providing a way for the LGA to work with a range of councils and councillors who can be moving at different speeds. It includes a mythbuster section as well as hints and tips pages specially designed to reflect the range of different roles in a council, such as officers and councillors.<\/p>\n
Digital Councils will be continuously updated to reflect current work and will carry a range of case studies so authorities can learn from good practice elsewhere.<\/p>\n
