Internet projects fail due to poor planning - 0 views

  •  
    Businesses and government bodies are missing out on significant savings by under-specifying websites and digital campaigns, according to the latest issue of the Irish Internet Association's latest State of the Net quarterly bulletin. At a time when there is huge interest in delivering services online and running campaigns, many internet projects fail to deliver on their objectives. People are constantly losing jos because of poor planning within the group.

Example of Civic Engagement - 0 views

    LINK: http://youtu.be/XpaOjMXyJGk This youtube video shows a Dove Campaign. The video shows how people view themselves (specifically woman) and how other people view them. The woman in the video are very harsh on themselves and how they look but when everyone else looks at them they see something different. I think that this video is a perfect example of civic engagement because DOVE is trying to spread a message to woman everywhere a problem that a lot of young and older woman deal with, and that is self esteem issues. This video is very uplifting and is the start to trying to inspire and uplift the spirits of woman all around the world.

    This is the second year that they will be doing this. Last year donations were so great that they were able to pass out over 300 bags to homeless men. Everything they do, from backpacks for schoolchildren in the fall, to filling the fridges of families in need in the inner city of Boston, is community activism at its finest.
