Thoughts on Improving Your Messages
Critiquing messages is easy…crafting a good message is hard. Or is it? The Warn Room EDITOR'S DESK endeavors to provide solutions to alerting authorities so that they can improve their messaging. In this section, we'll take on the task of re-creating messages that could use a little help, showing how the evidence-based resources on this site can be used to craft better warnings.
The WARNING GALLERY entries provide examples in the construction and inclusion of content. Some Wireless Emergency Alerts are exemplary and others are not. Risk communicators can learn from each other in order to improve their messaging when it really matters. Check back frequently for new examples or subscribe to be notified when new examples are added.
