Abstract

The challenges that communication practitioners face in empowering communities living near multinational companies are significant, especially in ensuring these communities receive their social rights from the profits generated by these companies. Often, mining companies show little concern for the environmental consequences of their exploration activities on affected communities. These qualitative case studies use various research methods, including observation, interviews, document analysis, and descriptive data analysis techniques, with beneficiaries and relevant officials as the primary informants. The core objective of this study is to build a model of communication empowerment through the process of community dialogue. This study focuses on the case of a geothermal exploration project in Kamojang, Garut, using a case study approach to explain the development of an empowerment-oriented communication model through dialogue. This analysis underscores the critical significance of addressing the participatory needs of marginalized communities. Communication models for community empowerment developed near mining company operations are essential in preparing these communities to be self-sufficient, even after the closure of exploration sites. The study not only emphasizes the urgent need to empower communities affected by the company's activities but also showcases practical models for achieving this empowerment through dialogue. It serves as a valuable blueprint for improving communication strategies in the same context, with potentially broader implications in corporate social responsibility and community development practices.

Abstract

This study explores the impact of postmodernism on media narratives in climate issues, especially within the scope of communication in today's urban environments. Through a qualitative approach, this study deconstructs various media narratives on climate issues to understand their influence on the views and communicative actions of urban society. The analysis samples from various media platforms, including online news, social media, and digital publications, focusing on the years 2022-2023 to ensure data currency. The theoretical framework in this study integrates postmodernism concepts with communication theories, providing insights into the formation and reception of climate narratives by the audience. The findings indicate a shift in the way media narrates climate issues, moving from traditional narratives towards more fragmented and diverse ones, in line with postmodernism characteristics. This understanding is crucial for developing effective climate communication strategies that encourage active participation and concrete actions from city dwellers. Thereby, this study significantly contributes to climate communication research, highlighting the influence of media narratives on society's views and actions in facing climate issues within a complex and heterogeneous socio-cultural context.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the marketing public relations strategies the By.U provider employs to increase brand awareness through social media. The research method used is a qualitative approach with several data collection techniques, including interviews, observation, and documentation. The data analysis employed is qualitative data analysis, which involves three main activities: data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing or verification. Based on the research findings, it can be concluded that.U's marketing public relations planning strategy almost entirely adheres to the dimensions and indicators in the strategic planning process outlined by Whalen, known as Whalen’s 7-Step Strategic Planning Process. The only shortcoming lies in the situational analysis dimension, where U did not fully implement a SWOT analysis but only utilised certain aspects. The marketing public relations efforts By.U have generally been successful and aligned with the Three Ways Strategy concept by Thomas L. Harris. However, areas still need improvement, such as the frequency of interaction by the By.U team on Instagram comments, which is rarely done, and the repetitive use of the same color scheme in their posts, leading to follower fatigue. Moreover, there is a lack of broader outreach to less tech-savvy individuals. Additionally, the brand awareness of By.U users and potential users, according to Aaker's (1991) theory, is still at the brand recognition level.
