#CoHabitatNetwork 2020's campaign report - Urban October

Updated

The 2020 Urban October campaign was the first social media campaign of this kind carried out by the CoHabitat Network directly and delivered through a collaborative approach.

It was set up in the framework of the UN Urban October, which ran between the World Habitat Day on the theme «Housing for All: A better urban future» and the World Cities Day on the theme «Valuing our communities and cities».

Campaign aims
  • Spread the word about community-led housing initiatives
  • Promote peer-to-peer exchange
  • Encourage housing groups to document their project on cohabitat.io
  • Highlight the network and increase use of #CohabitatNetwork
Results

The campaign resulted in more engagement on cohabitat.io and on the coordinators’ websites. It also strengthened the exchange and collaboration with some partners on social media and with housing groups, which led to several projects updating their project descriptions on cohabitat.io.
