Based on an examination of over 20,000 images, the authors argue that phenomena such as selfies and memes must be analysed in their ... more
"The main thing I really liked about this project is that UNHCR invested the resources for proper qualitative social media monitoring, as opposed to the purely quantitative analyses that we see so often and which rarely go beyond keyword counting. To complement the social media information, the team ... more
"In recent years, more and more social media (Facebook) groups have been created dealing with memories of the Holocaust in Hungary.

In: The Routledge Companion to Media and Humanitarian Action
Robin Andersen; Robin Purnaka L. de Silva (eds.)
London: Routledge (2017), pp. 450-464
