2pm. PSU Smith Memorial Union, RM 238.

Communication has never been easier than it is right now. The Internet has made it possible to research, collect, and spread information to millions of people at little to no cost to activists and groups. Utilizing these new tools can be a very effective way to advocate for animal issues as well as other social justice issues.

Topics covered in this presentation will include making a website, using social networking sites, e-newsletters, and other relevant online tools. If you already use these tools in your activism, please join us and share your knowledge with others.

Our guest speaker will be Glenn Gaetz. Glenn heads up Liberation B.C. (http://liberationbc.org/) Glenn has been involved as an activist ever since he moved to Vancouver, about 4 years ago. He has participated in numerous protests, leafleting, and other outreach activities. His day job involves graphic design and web development for non-profit clients, and he uses the skills he’s learned there to provide Liberation BC with an inexpensive and easy-to manage website, as well as the ability to send out html emails to their mailing list. He is very interested in providing non-profits and activists with low-cost or free tools to aid in their efforts to make the world a better place.

Join us to learn, share, and grow as activists. Thank you.
