<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Hi, everyone.<br>
Thought this may be of interest for the chapters.<br>
Few months ago, ISOC Bulgaria applied for a small grant
under the Beyond the Net Small Grants Program of the ISOC
Foundation. <br>
The goal was to tackle disinformation, related to COVID-19, which
is widely spreading in Bulgaria. The organization wanted to
provide factual information, and thanks to one of the active
participants, a teacher in journalism and mass communications,
this happened. He published a number of articles on our newly
established FB page, and also interviewed key doctors, officials
and experts, who shared scientific information in a very
user-friendly way.<br>
The primary vehicle was Facebook, as more than half of the total
population of Bulgaria is actively engaged with this particular
platform. <br>
The new I<a href="https://www.facebook.com/internetsocietybg/" target="_blank">SOC Bulgaria
Facebook page</a> in a little bit more than 2 months has 821
people, who like it, and 1,180, who are following it. The Zoom
calls were advertised, and thus reached between 35,1K and 89,1K
views. The total amount of people reached through the small ad
campaign, was 979,477. This is about 25% of all Facebook users in
the country. We also had some positive feedback about the articles
we published on our <a href="https://isocbg.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">blog</a>, where the
articles we published in the first week of the project, were
viewed 6,119 times and shared 31 times. ISOC - Bulgaria was also
approached by the National Public Radio, and asked to share
details in one of the morning shows, which has pretty good
audience. <br>
<br>
The whole campaign was a success.<br>
We are thankful to the Internet Society Foundation for their
support!<br>
