SOCIAL MEDIA

​IFAD uses social media to reach out to a global audience and provide a wide range of content. We have a presence on some of the most popular platforms. The Communications Division is responsible for IFAD’s presence on social media channels.
Twitter

Twitter

Twitter is a social networking site where you can post short updates (maximum 280 characters). It is useful for sharing updates, latest news, announcements, job vacancies, publications and live reports from events. Statistics, facts, sound bites and news items are popular content on Twitter.
 
IFAD uses Twitter to share messages and news in real time and to raise awareness about our activities. Content on Twitter is searchable and visible to the entire internet community.

IFAD content on Facebook aims to spur interaction with our followers by sharing information, images and videos. IFAD’s Facebook page does not allows people post links but they can comment on posts.

​LinkedIn

LinkedIn has roots as a job-search service, but with over 500 million users worldwide, it is quickly becoming a platform for networking, sharing industry knowledge, and providing expert opinions. On LinkedIn we target qualified job seekers, technical experts and thought leaders. We use an engaging and inspirational tone and aim for engagement on a more technical level on issues related to IFAD’s work and mandate.
