Toolkit

This Toolkit brings together the best communications advice from members and partners of the OECD DevCom Network. In each of its 10 Learning Areas, you will find practical recommendations and inspiring examples to follow. Each Learning Area relates to one of three big communications challenges: making good strategic choices; adopting modern campaigning practices; and creating supportive conditions.

The Learning Areas will be published throughout 2020. Follow the SDG Communicator to receive alerts when Learning Areas go online.
