Social Media for Govt 2025
Event description
Event description
The Government Social Network is back for a 2025 conference. This year we will be based at the Hunter Council Chambers, Te Herenga Waka—Victoria University of Wellington.
This conference is about sharing knowledge between other Government agencies so that we can better serve our communities.
We run this event at cost, so that Government doesn't have to pay external companies thousands of dollars to talk to each other.
**This event is for folk working in social media for Government, Local Government and Universities**
