Dear Neil and HIFA colleagues,
We are looking for volunteers to join the HIFA X team.
The team helps amplify HIFA messages, highlight discussions taking place on the HIFA forums, and share work and updates from our member organisations. We also use the account to spotlight particular topics and discussions that may be of interest to the wider health community.
If you use X/Twitter and would like to help HIFA share and amplify this content, we would be very happy to hear from you. You do not need to be a social media expert. An interest in HIFA's work, health information and online engagement is the main thing.
We would also like to hear your thoughts about HIFA starting a Bluesky account.
Many health professionals, researchers and organisations are now using Bluesky alongside other social media platforms. We are wondering whether HIFA should establish a presence there as well.
What do you think?
- Do you use Bluesky?
- Would you follow and engage with HIFA there?
- Do you think Bluesky could help HIFA reach new audiences or strengthen our existing community?
- What should HIFA share on Bluesky?
- Are there any concerns we should consider before starting an account?
- Would you be interested in volunteering to help HIFA establish and manage a Bluesky presence?
We would particularly like to hear from members who are already using Bluesky and have some experience with the platform.
So, if you would like to join the HIFA X team, or would be interested in helping us explore Bluesky, please let us know. We would also welcome your thoughts on whether Bluesky would be useful for HIFA.
Best,
Esther Nakkazi
