Columbia Neighbors: Centering Community In Your Communications
Have you been wondering how to better communicate with Columbia’s surrounding community members and neighborhood stakeholders? How to share news, research, and connections that might be relevant and helpful? How to spotlight and center the connections between Columbia and our neighbors (of which there are many!)? The Columbia Neighbors team from the Office of Communications and Public Affairs along with the Community Advisory Council speaks about how to better reach, engage, and share stories about the spaces where Columbia and our surrounding communities intersect.
This workshop took place March 1, 2023.
