    Advocacy – is a way of expressing views,
    opinions, concerns information access and on
    establishing to all one’s rights and responsibilities
    through any possible means or ways.
    Social Media

    • Is a collective term for website applications which focus on


    community-based input, communication, interaction,
    content-sharing and collaboration.
    • As of today, social media was known to be the most powerful
    platform to use if you want to generate instant and massive
    public reactions to whatever concerns or issue that you have.
    • However, in using Social Media as a platform for
    advocacy, one should also realize that following
    protocols and computer etiquettes should be observed
    at all time.
    • Moreover, you should also understand and appreciate
    how ICT influence the history specifically its
    significant contribution to what we are enjoying today.
    The Role of ICT in Recent History 
    Throughout recent history, the
    Philippines have been one of a few
    nations that demonstrate unity for a call
    to action or social change. These
    campaigns for social change would have
    not been successful if it were not for ICT.
    1. EDSA (PEOPLE POWER
    REVOLUTION)
    The people power revolution lasted from 1983 to 1986.
    During a radio broadcast of Radio Veritas, Cardinal Sin
    encouraged the Filipinos to help end the regime of then
    President Ferdinand Marcos. A major protest took place
    along the EDSA from February 22 to 25, 1986 involving
    two million Filipinos from different sectors. These
    included civilians, political parties, the military and
    religious groups.
    From this happening, radio broadcast
    had helped change the course of history.
    they’ve use Radyo Veritas to reach out
    with other people and to convey
    messages and disseminate information
    about this even in the recent history.
    2. EDSA DOS
    This is also known as the 2001 EDSA Revolution,
    happened during January 17 to 21, 2001. It was fueled
    after 11 prosecutors of the President Joseph Estrada
    walked out of the impeachment trial. As a result, the
    crowd in EDSA grew over the course of a few days
    through text brigades. In the history, it can be traced that
    they’ve used text messaging to mobilize people
    3. PDAF (Priority Development Assistance
    Fund)
    It is also known as the Million People
    March. This is a series of protest that mainly
    took place in Luneta Park from august 22 to
    26, 2013. There were also several
    demonstrations that happened around key
    cities in the Philippines and some location
    overseas. The organizers and promoters of
    the Million People March used Facebook
    and Change.org as their, mediums.
    4. Yolanda People Finder
    Recent storms in Philippines history gave
    birth to the People finder database powered
    by Google. During typhoon Yolanda, the
    people finder was a vital tool for people
    across the globe to track the situation of
    their relatives. This proved to be successful
    and is now adapted by more organizations to
    help people track relatives during calamities.
    Change.org
    Change.org is dubbed as the “world’s platform for
    change” where anyone from the online community can
    create a petition and ask others to sign in it. During the
    past times petitions are only done through signing a
    paper, usually done by a group asking for signatures via
    travel. Change.org gives access to more people by
    allowing the online community to affix their digital
    signatures on petition.
    Signing an Online Petition
    1.Visit Change.org
    2.Change.org works this way. If this is
    your first time to use Change.org, click
    Sign up or log in with Facebook.
    Otherwise, just input your log in details.
    3. You can then start your own petition, but for
    now click on any petition you want under
    tending petitions.
    4. Read the petitions description to see if this
    petition matters to you. If it is, sign the
    petition by filling up the information on the
    right side of the screen.
    5. Share the petition on Facebook to promote it.
       
    Alternatively, you can check out petitions of
    your friends on Facebook, and then click on
    those petitions to read about it and sign it.
    It had been also discussed in this lesson that
    ICT is a tool for development communication.

    The Two Faces of Social Media

    GOOD
    CONCLUSION:
    Social Media can help us gain the
    knowledge that we need, but depending on it
    too much can give us doubt of the
    knowledge that we already have.
    Thank you!
