Providing information outside the faculty
There are various methods of sharing information about our research and educational programmes outside the faculty.
Press and media
News can be shared using press releases, articles, columns, film clips, news tips, posts on social media. Sometimes through different channels for the same piece of news. The Faculty Communications Section handles all press contacts and can be reached at press [at] med [dot] lu [dot] se

When do you need to communicate?
In order to find out if you need to communicate, start by thinking through what you wish to achieve with your communications and who your target group is.
This is a template for a communication plan which is easy to use. It contains useful questions to ask yourself before starting up any information activities.
