About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour

As news influencers grow their share of the information and attention market, it is important to know how to collaborate with them. But what exactly defines someone as a news or information influencer? How can journalism collaboratives successfully partner with one? How can these collaborations deepen community engagement practices and increase organizational capacity?

Following their popular plenary session at this year's Collaborative Journalism Summit, Adriana Lacy and Emily Ristow return to answer questions on how to make your collaborations with influencers the best they can be.

This session is designed for collaborative project managers and participants, but all collaborative enthusiasts are welcome. No previous experience is required. Registration confirmation will include technical requirements and access instructions.
