Support to effective - an affective - communication of the EUSBSR

This is an introduction to a communication tool kit compiled by “Let’s communicate!” project which functioned as the EUSBSR Communication Point until 30/09/2022.

WHAT?

The tool kit is designed to support especially the communication of three key EUSBSR stakeholder groups that have central positions in communicating the EUSBSR:

• National Coordinators,
• Policy Area Coordinators
• Flagships (and other contributing projects).

The tool kit contents are also strongly based on the results of an EUSBSR communications survey conducted for the three key stakeholder groups in early 2017. In the survey both the current state and needs of the stakeholders were researched. See the summary of the survey results here.

WHY?

The tool kits aim at

• helping the key stakeholders in the communication issues they identified in the communications survey,
• providing tools and inspiration for communications of EUSBSR,
• setting a joint understanding of what communicating the EUSBSR means – including both internal and external communications, and
• ensuring continuity in EUSBSR communications: when a new person starts in their position, the relevant information is transferred easily with the help of the tool kits.

HOW?

The tool kit includes communication tools and materials to all EUSBSR communicators but also targeted contents to each group (NCs, PACs & Flagships). The contents are shared at the EUSBSR website available for all stakeholder groups.

WHEN?

The tool kit was launched in 2018. It is however a "living environment" and feedback/suggestions/ideas/requests for further contents are highly appreciated and please be in contact with the BSP.
