Greifswald now accessible via WhatsApp - immediate updates at your fingertips

The University and Hanseatic City of Greifswald has taken a significant step in modernising its digital communication, introducing a new WhatsApp channel and a separate newsletter for culture enthusiasts.

Mayor Dr. Stefan Fassbinder announced the WhatsApp channel as a means to keep citizens informed about the city's activities. This channel, he stated, will serve as another method for disseminating information, complementing the existing platforms such as the city newspaper, website, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, the Greifswald app, and the MOLO app.

The WhatsApp channel is free of charge, without ads, and does not include a response function. However, it allows citizens to receive fast, reliable information from the city administration, making it an ideal platform for current press releases and updates. The channel is intended for those who want to understand municipal decisions or actively participate in the city's affairs.

The WhatsApp channel is part of the city's broader strategy to engage with citizens in a more contemporary manner. It joins LinkedIn as the latest addition to the city's digital communication portfolio, expanding the range of platforms available for citizens to follow the city's news.

In addition to the WhatsApp channel, the city has also introduced a separate newsletter for culture enthusiasts. This newsletter will provide updates on cultural events, exhibitions, and other relevant news, further enriching the city's digital communication offerings.

While the search results do not provide information about who conceived the idea for introducing the WhatsApp channel, it is clear that the city is committed to staying connected with its citizens in the digital age. The WhatsApp channel, along with the culture newsletter and LinkedIn, are steps towards achieving that goal.

Citizens can now follow the city's news via LinkedIn, in addition to the existing platforms, ensuring they are always informed about the city's activities and cultural events. The city's digital communication continues to evolve, providing a comprehensive and accessible platform for all its citizens.
