#ANTArchy2

31st Annual Governor’s Hurricane Conference®
Social Media Exercise 

 

During the Conference, Florida State University’s Emergency Management and Homeland Security Program will conduct the fourth annual social media exercise. This year’s exercise, #ANTArchy2, is a continuation of the popular exercise conducted in 2015, and is designed to develop the participant’s ability to use social media for situational awareness. This exercise will demonstrate to participants how social media can be used during an emergency or disaster. Further, this exercise will provide participants the opportunity to practice techniques for searching and filtering information in social media as well as methods for collecting and aggregating information. The exercise will be completely virtual and will occur on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and other social media channels; there is no physical component or activity. Visit the Social Media Lounge in the registration area on the first floor of the Palm Beach County Convention Center and stay tuned to the GHC mobile app for more information.
