Presentation

• Context, issues : How to energize the dissemination and sharing of hyper-local information without mobilizing the community's communication resources. The territory of Couesnon Marches de Bretagne, resulting from a merger in January 2017 (19 communes, 21,830 inhabitants), found the answer thanks to a partnership with the local social network ma-residence.fr.

  - share their classifieds and cultural or leisure event 
• Targeted audience : local actors and communities,
  inhabitant of the territory
  large audience 
• Project's start year : 2015 

Resources

Conditions of success

• Points of vigilance, difficulties to pass through, success factors : Have dedicated work time to network animation, to avoid the breathlessness of the dynamics.
  
  Outlook: in this territory, which is not well served by public transport but is experiencing a steady growth in the number of active people, the local social network could nevertheless serve as a lever to support new cooperative uses, such as carpooling.
