However, research efforts to understand the opinions, needs, and concerns of healthcare professionals (HCP) tackling this new responsibility have been limited, despite being necessary for designing efficient support for them. In this article we look at varying opinions and attitudes published by HCPs towards the use of SoMe as a tool to communicate healthrelated information to the public: How did their attitudes develop since the decade preceding the COVID-19 outbreak and what were their main expressed concerns over the years. We conducted a qualitative review of editorials published on this topic in academic journals since 2010 by searching five databases up to December 2022. Thirty-eight (38) articles met the selection criteria. Nineteen (19) expressed a positive attitude, and Nineteen (19) expressed a negative or cautious attitude. Based on the results, the research period (

Mes enlla dels tradicionals fulls dominicals, hi ha programes televisius, radiofonics, portals digitals, i fins i tot liders de les diocesis amb presencia a les xarxes socials. Per si no n’hi ha prou amb tot aixo, el papa Francesc ha demostrat ser un comunicador nat.

Through fieldwork conducted in the Palestinian Shatila refugee camp, which has recently seen a massive influx of refugees from Syria as result of the Syrian civil war, this paper illustrates the increasing hardships in everyday life as result of the severe overpopulation of the camp. The combination of these hardships is, according to contemporary academics, a trigger for inter-group conflict that often escalates over existing social fault-lines. Based on these theoretical premises, we would expect conflict escalation between the three national groups in the camp: the established Palestinian-Lebanese refugees and the new Palestinian-Syrian and Syrian refugees. However, this thesis argues that no inter-group conflict has erupted inside the camp, but that rather regulations were set in place to deal with the current social situation and resulted in the establishment of a ‘new social order’. By using the framework of social order, this thesis analyzes how social interactions in the camp are structured. The framework of causal mechanisms is then used to explain how the established social order helps to minimize conflict. The findings demonstrate that the situationally shifting of group boundaries resulting from the individuals’ ‘positionality’ leads to a situation in which ‘nationality’ does not permanently set the groups apart. The analysis shows that an explanation for the minimization of conflict in Shatila camp can be found in the absence of permanent group boundaries

By stating what constitutes an efficient communication strategy within the Church, the essay underlines the weak points and the possibilities of communicating from an institutional point of view, describing the simultaneous action between internal and external audiences in order to communicate its essence. We rely on the case of the Spanish Catholic Bishops’ Conference as a European example, highlighting t he lack of a public relationspolicy because of its difficulty in incorporating cultural digital elements linked to its identity. The final part suggests some best practices already achieved in the effort to construct an effective Communication Policy by a Religious Institution in present day Europe.
