– UNHCR Türkiye
Category: Standard Operating Procedures
Country: Türkiye
Organization: UNHCR
Link: Information Board - Concept and SOPs
Profile: UNHCR Türkiye has developed Standard Operating
Procedures (SOPs) for its dedicated two-way communication
Facebook page, referred to as “UNHCR Türkiye Information
Board”. The page targets refugees and asylum-seekers and
provides them with relevant information and news, made
available and packaged in an accessible, attractive, and
shareable digital format. Online posts, designed posters,
podcasts and videos are the main materials produced
for information dissemination on the page in multiple
languages. The page has enabled comments and allows
general queries to be received and responded to, using
the social media platform, thereby ensuring two-way
communication. The operation does not provide individual
counselling on the page to preserve peoples’ privacy.
The “look and feel” of the Information Board:
The overarching tone of the page is designed to be
direct, friendly and approachable, conveying that
UNHCR is an engaged and accessible organization
that welcomes communication and dialogue with the
people it serves.
Why to Use the Tool: This digital communication tool is a
good example of how UNHCR and partners can fulfill their
commitment to two-way communication with forcibly displaced
and stateless persons through social media platforms.
How To Use the Tool: The section of the UNHCR Türkiye
Information Board SOP should be adapted to reflect
different operational settings.
