Tweet Reach: Using Twitter to Increase Information Exchange in People with Communication Disabilities.

由于多达7%的澳大利亚人有身体和/或沟通残疾，被剥夺了获得信息的权利，Twitter提供了一种有价值的社交媒体形式，允许绕过受损的语言进行简短的文本交流。该项目将评估培训的影响，培训的目的是增加很少或没有发言权的人使用Twitter进行信息交流，而这些人需要信息以更好地融入社会、增强权能和循证决策。成果将为培训弱势群体使用社交媒体加强信息交流的政策和做法提供信息，并将促进将所有残疾人纳入社交媒体运动。

With as many as seven per cent of Australians having a physical and/or communication disability and being disenfranchised from information, Twitter offers a valuable form of social media allowing short segments of text communication that bypasses impaired speech. This project will evaluate the impact of training designed to increase the use of Twitter for information exchange in people who have little or no speech and who need information for better inclusion, empowerment and evidence-informed decision-making. Outcomes will inform policies and practices in training vulnerable populations to use social media for increased information exchange and will promote inclusion of all people with disabilities in social media campaigns.
