Module 1.

Communicating with Purpose

Task 1.3 - Purposes, Contexts and Communication media for your Protected Area /Natura 2000 site and work

Following the presentation in the Zebinar on Wednesday 4 March, complete the following table for the types of communications you are involved in in your
Natura 2000 site/ Protected Area, institution or workplace. (A pdf of the presentation is available on the Moodle for reference.)

This task will give you a “mini-inventory” - a reflection of the current status of the forms of communications you utilise, inside your organisation and outside,
about your site/ Protected Area. It also helps you to identify your audiences (also addressed in Module 2).

Using Table A below, select the ‘Purpose of Communication’, the ‘Context of Communication’ and, where relevant, the ‘Communication Media’ you have used -
give an example of how you use this in your work situation.

Post your answers in the Moodle Forum.
