SUMMARY:PRINZ: PassTheMic: Amplifying Voices that Need to Be Heard Webinar
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday 15 July\, 12–1pm\, PRINZ is partnering with Belong Aotearoa for a member webinar exploring one of the most important questions facing communications professionals right now: how do we help ethnically diverse communities get heard? \nBelong Aotearoa is a national organisation working to strengthen belonging and social cohesion across Aotearoa New Zealand. Their flagship storytelling initiative\, PassTheMic\, amplifies the voices of migrant and refugee-background communities. \nAt a time when anti-migrant sentiment is becoming more visible in our public discourse\, you’ll hear directly from Angela Wilton\, CEO of Belong Aotearoa with insights into this incredible audience and community. This is information you won’t get from anyone else and is gold for communicators targeting these audiences. \nAlso included is a facilitated discussion\, led by Avalon Communication’s Lee Cowan\, on how storytelling can shift public narratives on migration\, diversity\, and belonging. Your insights could directly inform the next iteration of PassTheMic — a nationally significant campaign that needs the kind of strategic thinking our members do every day.

SUMMARY:3CMA Webinar: Part Two: Get Found by AI: Generative Engine Optimization for Local Government Communicators
DESCRIPTION:When residents ask an AI answer engine about local services\, emergency information\, or community resources\, does your content show up accurately – or even at all? As more people turn to generative AI tools like ChatGPT\, Claude\, and Perplexity to search for information online\, local government communicators need to adapt their SEO strategies. \nIn this forward-looking webinar\, Rebecca Emery of Seacoast AI introduces Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) and how we can structure and present our content so generative AI models and answer engines can find it\, trust it\, and serve up accurate information and answers to the people who want it. You’ll leave with a clear understanding of how GEO differs from traditional SEO and how AI actually reads our content online\, what changes you can make today to improve your content’s visibility in AI-generated responses\, and why this matters more than ever for public trust and community reach.
