Founded in early 2010, our media and communication team works to communicate Centre for Social Research’s (CSR) organizational message of women’s empowerment consistently and effectively, thereby creating opportunities for both our constituents and supporters while developing and deepening CSR’s relationship with society at large. Not only do we carefully craft and streamline both our internal and external flow of communication, but we also relentlessly reach out to various sectors of civil and political society: whether in mass media and the press, via online social networking, or in our own publications and seminars.
For everyone at CSR, media and communication is about more than just gaining supporters: It’s about engaging them. Likewise, we do more than just speak out: We listen to and dialogue with the community voices we represent, enfolding their concerns into our organization’s objectives and projects. we hope to spread awareness of issues related to gender inequality and discrimination by leveraging the power of media and communication, and empowering individuals and groups while building their capacities for action and inspiring positive change.
Our Social media collaborations include Facebook for #SocialSurfing (from 2015) & Twitter for #TweeSurfing (from 2017). we seek to promote the use of Social media by building capacities of social media users in counter speech and online safety. with Facebook and Twitter as our partners. This is done through workshops in institutions, web resource centres and interviews of opinion leaders. Since the year 2015, we have reached out to more than 450 colleges in 22 states, 4 Union Territories and 92 cities.
