Online Community Management Workshop

In today's fragmented digital landscape, building and sustaining powerful online communities is critical and more challenging than ever before. From the growing threat of misinformation to coordinated attacks from bad actors, navigating digital campaigning and organising requires both strategy and resilience.

To meet this moment, Australian Progress is partnering with Quiip to deliver the Community Management Workshop - an interactive one-day workshop designed to strengthen your digital organising and online community building capacity. You'll develop a practical strategy to engage and grow your community, and build a more adaptive approach to navigating an evolving online environment.

You'll walk away with a clear roadmap for your digital channels, a deeper understanding of how to protect your team, and the strategies needed to build resilient, people-powered communities that win.

Learning Outcomes

By the end of the Community Management Workshop, participants will be able to:

• Build and sustain powerful people-powered communities that achieve your digital organising goals
