The new ‘Editorial Leaders’ initiative from the World Editors Forum and WAN-IFRA, is a module based training programme aimed at improving the knowledge of young editor's. It is designed to help them gain professional expertise to better engage with the communities around them. This is the fifth module in the series. 

This module is geared to exhibit the importance of new age content
distribution platforms and social media applications in pushing editorial content. The module will give insight into the immense power of every invisible reader and how it defines modern-day journalism on popular social networks such as Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn.

The participants will understand the algorithms of social networking sites, study how content goes viral as well as learn intelligent content distribution and sharing methods.
