DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT

The project "Understanding global voices: researching and adapting Ukrainian Witness content for international audiences" aims to deeply analyze the interaction of international audiences with the English-language channel of Ukrainian Witness. The goal is to better understand their informational needs, preferences, and content engagement patterns. This research will identify the most effective topics, formats, and platforms for reaching foreign viewers, enabling us to adapt our content strategy, increase audience reach, and improve engagement with the global community.

The project involves gathering and analyzing data through surveys, viewership statistics, and user engagement on platforms such as YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, Telegram and TikTok. The insights gained will help us create a more flexible, audience-driven content strategy that caters to the diverse needs of international audiences.

The innovation of this approach lies in utilizing data to create personalized and relevant media formats, which will significantly enhance communication with global audiences. This will not only optimize our content but also strengthen the organization's position on the global media landscape, making our materials more accessible and effective in the context of the ongoing information war.
