#ICFPLive is a partnership of communication professionals coming together at the 2013 International Conference on Family Planning to provide live social media coverage of key conversations and presentations emerging from the meeting. Led by FHI 360, the initiative will establish #ICFPLive as the hashtag for live coverage, and participants are encouraged to use that hashtag to provide quotes, photos, commentary, and video of the conference.
Below are details that will help you engage with #ICFPLive. Additionally, download the ICFP Social Media Guide.
