Europe's most popular communications, PR

July 15, 2013 #CommsChat on conflict communications

This week, we’ll be joined by Albany Associates, experts in crisis and conflict communications with an outlook on building grassroots stakeholder engagement. They’ll discuss how companies build ties with the local community in unstable areas.

• What is the ‘social licence to operate’?
• How should companies investing in developing markets approach local comms?
• What steps should they take to engage local stakeholders?
• What industries are doing this effectively already and which aren’t?
• How important is risk assessment in these situations?
• What is the ideal relationship between a company and a local population.

Join us! We tweet from @CommsChat and #CommsChat takes place from 8-9pm UK time – for worldwide times, go here. Anyone can take part in the discussion – simply follow the hashtag here or on Twitter. If you can’t make the chat or would like to revisit it, a transcript will go up on Tuesday morning.

We’d love to hear your suggestions for future topics for #CommsChat – get in touch with Brittany by email or Twitter if you’ve got ideas.
