Description
In this subject, students explore the processes of understanding audiences and generating insights through two communication research methods: key informant interviews and social media content analysis. These methods inform their understanding of audience interests, concerns, needs and behaviours to develop evidence-based recommendations for strategic communication. Students apply these methods to specific contexts and learn the value of integrating research into strategic communication projects to understand diverse audiences.
