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

多达7%的澳大利亚人患有身体和/或沟通障碍，被剥夺了获取信息的权利，推特提供了一种宝贵的社交媒体形式，允许简短的文本交流绕过受损的语言。该项目将评估旨在增加使用推特进行信息交流的培训的影响，这些人很少或根本不会说话，他们需要信息，以便更好地包容、赋权和进行有证据的决策。成果将为培训弱势群体利用社交媒体增加信息交流的政策和做法提供信息，并将促进所有残疾人参与社交媒体运动。

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.
