THE ISSUE:
Communication technologies are critical for any project’s success, and especially those with a social, community impact. Successful media and communication strategies can grow a project’s reach and impact, connecting the organization to new funding or support from the broader community.
However, for a variety of factors, many foundations and community projects in Cartagena run their programs on very limited resources. The majority of our partners maintain a minimal budget, if a budget at all, and a staff of purely volunteers—which makes their work all the more incredible. As such, these projects also often lack the necessary resources for sufficient media and communication supports. This may mean lacking the proper technology (cameras, computers, etc.), the proper training to best utilize these technologies, or simply the time to invest in creating and completing effective communication campaigns.
