You need to understand the platform so you can make appropriate content - work with stakeholders, young people etc. How do you reach different audiences? - Gets harder as people access info on different channels - not a lot of research in to effectiveness of Gov Communications - need a good understanding of audiences Achieve credibility within platforms don't just view them as yet another broadcast platform.
