INTRODUCTION - ABSTRACT
The current project is a group project on Public Relations and the New Media. The team chose
to design a PR and the New Media Campaign for SynAthina. SynAthina is an innovative project
under the auspices of the Municipality of Athens. SynAthina is an online platform where NGOs,
the civil society and teams upload their actions, so that people at large can learn about them
and participate in them. This initiative aims at getting people together, but also at promoting
the vivid spirit of Athens among its citizens. The initiative has another underlining factor, as it
opens up for a true and transparent coexistence among the citizens and the city at large.
As a team of two persons who has been following the social changes in Greece during the last
years, we identify the contemporary need for organizations and institutions to be transparent,
open to conversation, in a position to engage with its publics and able to respond to the modern
needs of communication.
We designed a campaign which aims to broaden the scope of SynAthina’s engagement with the
civil society and further enhance a two way communication with its publics. The idea is to shift
from an online Platform to an online Network, which interacts both during the various
initiatives, but has also a common online space to meet and provide ideas. The campaign
promotes the ideas of open and transparent policies by using the proven dynamic offered by
digital social media in an open and participatory society. Instead of a one way communication,
this specific digital media-oriented campaign aims to be an engaging and challenging
opportunity for open dialogue between people who design actions, those who participate in
them, those who host them and the city at large. This online digital campaign aims at
strengthening the so called “bottom-up approach” in building policies and strategies at large.
The campaign starts with the presentation of SynAthina and its publics and moves on with the
design of a specific strategy and the presentation of the tools needed for its implementation.
5. 5
RESEARCH AND MIND-MAP
During the research phase of the project and in view of formulating a specific proposal for a
communication strategy, the team used the following tools in order to gather information for
the organization and focus on a proposal:
a. online research of SynAthina’s online communication tools, namely website, blog,
facebook and twitter account, youtube channel and mobile applications;
b. online research of articles, comments, blogs about SynAthina by sources other than the
the platform, namely online magazines, references in Greek media, comments on public
facebook accounts, comments on online accounts or websites of NGOs which have
uploaded their actions in the platform;
c. direct contacts with SynAthina’s staff and members of NGOs, which have already
uploaded their actions in the platform.
RESEARCH RESULTS AND OBSERVATIONS
Number of NGOs and teams registered
The team found out that SynAthina is active the last 10 months. During this time a lot of
organizations and civil society initiatives – currently 68 different ones - have uploaded actions in
the platform. The number of the registered NGOs and civil society initiatives, however, does not
reflect the actual number of active organizations in Athens. (Appendix 1)
System of uploading actions – SynAthina Platform
Actions are uploaded on the online SynAthina Platform. The process is quite easy and fast. Once
an action is uploaded, it appears on the SynAthina map of actions and the platform’s visitor can
find more information about its nature and the place it occurs. The platform’s visitor can also
see the contact details for the organizations and visit the latter one’s online media. (Appendix 2)
SynAthina Online Media
The platform has links to SynAthina’s Facebook and Twitter account (3.985 likes and 555
followers), Youtube Channel, Blog, Radio and mobile applications. The platform provides also a
link to “Stegi SynAthina”, a building located at the center of Athens. The specific building is
owned by the Municipality of Athens and is being offered for free use to NGOs, upon request.
The platform gives also the ability to subscribe to SynAthina’s newsletter. There are currently
almost 90 email addressed on the list, probably due to the fact that the design of the webpage
6. 6
does not provide an easily visible link. The project team observed, however, that the public does
not seem to actively engage on the online accounts, apart from a number of likes and retweets.
Moreover, SynAthina seems not to have a variation of the way it spreads the information
through the various online Media. The action uploaded in the platform is also uploaded on the
Facebook and Twitter accounts, as well as on the blog. The same information features on the
mobile applications. The Facebook account does provide more live photographs and some
videos. Videos can also be found on the YouTube Channel.
Online Media accounts of NGOs
Every NGO or civil society initiative which wishes to upload its action, it does so on SynAthina
Platform. The NGOs and other teams provide, then, the link to their website and facebook
account or facebook event page. The project team noticed that although SynAthina links on its
Facebook account with that of the NGOs, this does not happen most of the times in the
opposite direction. In that way, SynAthina is used as an additional channel of communication for
the NGO’s action, but it does not serve fully its goal in creating a community where people can
learn more about what is going on in the city. Visitors of the NGOs’ and civil society’s initiatives
Facebook accounts, will most of the times not see a link “calling” them to visit SynAthina or even
allowing them to simply click on it.
External environment
SynAthina seems to have a growing number of supporters, ranging from individuals to
enterprises and the civil society at large. As an innovative initiative in the City of Athens
(currently among the 21 Finalists in the Bloomberg Philanthropies “Mayors Challenge”
Competition), there seems to be a growing number of publics who wish to actively participate in
it and assist in achieve its objectives.
General observations
SynAthina wishes to address all its publics, not only the civil society organizations and NGOs
which upload their actions in its platform. It wishes to serve as a point where people and
organizations can meet and interact. It aims at strengthening the active role of citizens in a vivid
society. SynAthina is a very strong tool in order to underline a transparent and open-to-all policy
in a participatory democratic city.
The team identified that the current situation provides an excellent opportunity to open up to a
large number of citizens and give them an open space to participate in and experience
themselves the city’s general open policy. The team chose to focus from within on the real
views, experiences and everyday stories of the people who upload their actions on SynAthina
Platform and open a dialogue, a two way communication with other audiences in the city.
7. 7
Key Publics for the specific campaign
Based on the analysis of the situation and the identification of an opportunity for the
organization to share its open policy, the team focused on SynAthina’s key publics for the
specific communication campaign. At this point, the team decided to weed out the less
important publics, concentrating instead on those fewer that have particular relevance and the
most potential for the issue at hand. The main focus will be on the majority of the so called
“customers” and on part of its “enablers”, namely the NGOs, the organized in civil society, the
existent team, but also the population at large. The campaign will address latent or even
apathetic publics, in order to raise awareness among them around SynAthina’s existence and
make them active; it will also have as a purpose to make publics actively engage online with
SynAthina and its initiatives.
MIND MAP
Taking into account the research results and observations, as well as the goals and tools that can
be used when drawing a PR campaign with the traditional and new media, the team draw a
Mind Map (Appendix 3). The mind map focuses more on the online tools, as SynAthina is an
online Platform which aims to develop to an online and offline Human Network – Human Grid.
8. 8
KEYWORD RESEARCH
As this campaign focuses more on the online PR tools, our research included Keyword Research,
as this can be found in Google Trends and Analytics. The goal was to identify what people look
for more, in order to increase visibility of SynAthina and the actions uploaded in its platform.
The Keyword Research aims at improving the appearance of SynAthina in Google search; the
goal of the strategy campaign is to provide the Organization with input on how to write their
articles in order to increase their online hits and work by taking into account the Search Engine
Optimization (SEO) mechanisms.
The analysis was based on three main thematic zones: a. the name of the organization, b. the
objectives the organization covers and c. the area where SynAthina works and is situated. The
research was made for the last 12 months, since SynAthina exists during the last 10 months
(Appendix 4).
The results showed that the name of the organization does not have enough hits and for this
reason it is not rated in Google trends. Although the name consists of a very famous say in
Greek - «Συν Αθηνά και χείρα κίνει», meaning that starting with the assistance of Gods, the
human being should also make efforts to ameliorate his / her life – none of the version for the
SynAthina appear to interest the online audiences. When it comes to the objectives of
SynAthina, which are the actions of NGOs and the civil society at large in the city of Athens, the
results showed that throughout time people search on how to participate in actions on a
voluntary basis in their city. Last but not least, people are more interested in looking up for the
word Athens, than the city of Athens / Municipality of Athens, under the auspices of which
SynAthina functions.
PR AND NEW MEDIA STRATEGY FOR SYNATHINA
STRATEGY AND ACTION
In order for SynAthina to deal with the situation it faces, it needs to take an innovative initiative
which will engage its publics. The strategy drawn can be, thus, characterized as one which
involves both action and communication strategies. The plan for audience engagement, by using
strong two-way communication tactics, responds to audiences’ relevant interests and requests,
brings the key publics in direct contact with SynAthina and the city of Athens, generates
feedback for the organization and stimulates actions among focus groups. It furthers seeks not
9. 9
only to generate publicity, but also to bring out newsworthy stories and information, underlining
a transparent communication, which reflects an open and transparent policy.
The campaign is based on the information model of communication and the New Media, which
focuses more on the content (personal thoughts, point of view, concerns etc.) and channels of
communication (social media, internet). It involves messages (facebook comments, tweets,
stories on blogs) sent by various sources to a number of receivers through a technical
connection (digitally). The campaign, however, includes also elements from the traditional
dialogue model, as it attempts to create mutual experiences among publics involving share of
thoughts and eventually increase of trust. It plans to build a strong cooperation between NGOs
which upload their actions in the platform and use the SynAthina Stegi as a meeting point and
seminar place. Although this project focuses mainly on the digital tools, the strategy includes the
incorporation of SynAthina in NGOs’ events which are hosted by the former one and the
promotion of its visibility in the traditional media and written press.
The main purpose of the strategy is to make SynAthina something more than an online
Platform; the goal is to raise it up to the level of a Network, where people and innovative ideas
coexist in a vivid and alive city. The strategy focuses on the following main points:
- broaden scope of people / publics the Network addresses;
- broaden number of NGOs and civil society initiatives that are registered in the Network;
- promote individuals online engagement;
- advance story telling;
- promote open spirit to “city journalism”;
- enhance connectivity and engagement among different NGOs;
- enhance interactivity between various online media;
- enhance the role of civil society in the Municipal area of Athens;
- underline the importance of active collaboration between State owned institutions and
the civil society at large;
- promote active participation in an open and transparent city.
OBJECTIVES
The strategy sets objectives to be reached with the use both of online and traditional media. It
follows the model taught in Public Relations, where publics first become aware, then accept a
goal and finally are driven to an action.

2 videos (24”) about SynAthina on morning daily TV shows within 4 months.
BENCHMARKING
SynAthina is an innovative initiative which brings together civil society organizations, a State
authority (the City of Athens) and people at large. As such, there are no similar initiatives
currently in the Greece. Even though there are online platforms looking for volunteering
positions (Volunteer4Greece.gr) or listing NGOs (HumanGrid.gr), none of them has the unique
feature of SynAthina. In order to identify best practices and have a clear benchmarking around
the use of digital social media and online tools, the project team looked thoroughly in other
fields. The team analyzed online magazines and editions which inform people on what is
happening in the city, provide information on how to participate in events, write articles about
social news and trends and offer a free space, so that audiences can express their views and
comments. The following online editions were analyzed:
City of Athens.gr
Athens Voice.gr
AthensMagazine.gr
Athinorama.gr
ΕλCulture.gr
Art & Life.gr
Click at Life.gr
All these providers have interactive templates for their audience using social media (Facebook,
Twitter and Instagram). All seven of them have Facebook and Twitter accounts, except from
Athinorama.gr and Art&Life.gr that do not have Twitter. AthensVoice.gr and ΕλCulture.gr have
also Instagram accounts. It is important to state that none of them apart from Art&Life.gr has a
search engine (like SynAthina) which allows filtering and specifies findings. The benchmarking
looked at each of the above mentioned providers’ social media presence separately and it was
completed with a grouped graph showing in a comparative way audiences’ participation in
social media (Appendix 5).

TOOLS
Although the campaign is digital (desktop, mobile, tablet), it also includes conventional and
strategic public relations and communication tactics. Personal involvement is highly promoted,
as a powerful element of communication for engagement and dialogue. The tools to be used in
the integrated PR strategy can be seen on the mind map. This part of the project focuses on the
tools and the “how to” ideas to be used in the online environment.
- Installation of publicly accessible PC at Stegi SynAthina
NGOs and civil society organizations can rent for free the space owned by SynAthina and the
Municipality of Athens, in order to organize meetings, gatherings and run their actions. Although
there seems to be a growing number of organizations using the space, there are hardly any
stories or photographs placed in the online media about this. The existence of a publicly
accessible PC in a stand, where people are called to upload their comment via their account at
SynAthina’s Facebook page will produce direct comments by the ones experiencing the actions
they participate in. The PC’s interface will be designed in such a way, where it will allow people
to be accustomed with other SynAthina’s online tools and enter SynAthina’s blog directly and
place their comments there, too.
- Installation of live-streaming equipment at Stegi SynAthina
Live-streaming can increase the visibility of events taking place at Stegi SynAthina, but it can also
raise awareness among unaware publics around the existence of the place and SynAthina. Live-
streaming can be linked both to the online tools of SynAthina, as well as to those of the NGOs
organizing actions. In case of big events which draw publics’ wide attention, such as WWF’s
seminars and ActionAid’s open walks, videos taken by live-streaming equipment can be
provided to TV channels for live or recorded broadcasting in shows.
- Amend and Upgrade existing online tools - Enhance connectivity and interactivity of
SynAthina’s various online tools
The organization seems to have a number of set online tools, which, however, do not seem to
“communicate” or cooperate among them; it is suggested that the website incorporates ideas of
interconnectivity, as these appear on the website of Art&Life.gr. Moreover, the existent tools
need a number of amendments and upgrades, in order to promote a two-way communication
and attract people’s engagement. The emailing list of SynAthina can attract more subscribers by
– initially – making the “subscribe for our news” button more visible (Appendix 6). When
someone subscribes in the mailing list there should be a technical feature where the person
indicates how often he / she wishes to receive emails. Emails will include information on past
and future actions, contact details of NGOs and a story / comment by a participant. By including
13. 13
individuals’ comments, stories and photographs in its emails, SynAthina promotes storytelling
and engagement as it invites everyone to write his / her comments directly below / after any
action (Appendix 7). Newsletters should be sent one a week announcing the actions that are
programmed to take place during a 7 days period (Appendix 8). In cases where SynAthina needs
to communicate a very important action or incident, which seeks further digital and traditional
media attention, the organization will send Press Releases (Appendix 9).
- Invite people to write in SynAthina’s Blog
The design of the new blog not only allows for people to see the actions which take place, but
gives them the possibility to directly comment, write their story and upload their photos and
videos. It is not a blog where only SynAthina’s administrators have access to. Its technical
features will allow interested publics to engage in a community and upload articles with a.
comments on actions, b. ideas about new actions, c. comments on people’s participation in the
city and d. links to live-streaming events and videos on YouTube. The blog will also have a
banner on its side, where future actions will run. The goal is to have people taking part in what is
going on in Athens in a blink (Appendix 10). The launching of the new blog, together with the
call for active participation in it, will be announced in SynAthina’s online media accounts, in its
e-newsletter, as well as in emails sent to its subscribers. It will further be announced in Athens
984, the radio which covers SynAthina’s events and talks with the various civil society teams.
The call for active participation in the blog will be reminded in SynAthina’s newsletters and
emails, underlining the importance of an open and transparent dialogue between the city and
its citizens.
- Add functions to mobile application
In the world of social media users notify their friends and followers where they are and what
they do. The existent mobile applications offer a unique feature in comparison to other mobile
applications indicated under the current project’s benchmarking: SynAthina’s applications offer
to the user the ability to search for the actions he / she is interested in. The applications shall be
upgraded so as to provide technically the possibility to upload what the person is doing and
which action the person participates in (Appendix 11). Moreover, a Foursquare link to SynAthina
should be promoted and added as an icon in its mobile application. Via specialized algorithms
the application shall also provide a series of similar actions to the one the user visits or
participates in.
- Promote active online cooperation among NGOs and SynAthina
As actions are uploaded in SynAthina’s Platform, Facebook and Twitter account, blog and mobile
application, the organization can monitor an active two-way cooperation with the various NGOs
which promote their actions via the platform. NGOs and civil society organizations shall be
encouraged to link SynAthina to their websites and Facebook accounts, whenever the actions is
directly linked with the Platform or Stegi SynAthina.
14. 14
- Include SynAthina actions at TV spots and Magazines for culture and happenings in the
city
Promote an active cooperation between a. Ef Zin TV Spots in Mega Channel and b. Magazines
and online editions for Athens (Athinorama, Athens Voice, Lifo), by underlining the importance
of people’s participation in their cities.
EVALUATION
During the planning phase of the strategy, there was also a design for an evaluation of the
tactics, tools and results over the time. Any strategy should go in hand with a proper evaluation:
ex-ante, during and ex-post. The team has set various criteria and metrics both for the
campaign’s objectives, as well as for the organization’s Public Relations profile.
METHODS AND METRICS
The evaluative research was based on both quantitative and qualitative methods. The former
ones included surveys, tracking of numbers related to comments and opinions, and monitoring
of results in view of the set goals. The latter one monitored the content of comments and online
Facebook and Twitter discussions, as well as posts in SynAthina’s blog, the new emerging publics
and focus groups, and the content of articles published in newspapers and magazines. The
evaluation was planned to take part constantly during the implementation of the strategy,
based on certain evaluation metrics for the set objectives and changes are made in case these
are needed. Digital media offer easily accessible statistics regarding the likeability, talkability and
visibility of an organization.
Changes in Facebook and Twitter accounts, with reference to likes in general, likes per post,
shares, followers, comments, retweets are easily measured (Appendix 12). Visitors and posts on
the blog can be also easily measured, while e-newsletters provide a wide range of metrics with
regards to the number of people reached, the number of the ones who click, open and read it
etc (Appendix 13).
