  • All content is divided into core categories. In addition, as the creator of your contribution, you have the option to give even more categories or 'tags' to your contributions. Consider, for example, the related country, study area, competence or sustainable development goal. This makes it easier to categorize your contributions and blogs and some blogs receive extra attention in the WorldSupporter media channels.

Can others respond to your contributions or you to others?

  • Anonymous responses are only possible to a limited extent and are only posted online after moderation (often once a week). Always log in to quickly use the comment option under a message posted by yourself or someone else.
  • And as with all online profiles and social media, if you like others to respond to your contributions, please post a comment yourself in another Supporter's blog or contribution!
  • Others can also easily follow you, or you, others, by clicking on the 'Follow' button under a mini-CV or avatar

Can you also create a profile for an organization?

  • When creating a profile, choose 'organization or group'
  • If you manage both a personal and an organizational profile, it is useful for other Supporters if it remains clear what statements are from the organization or from you personally
  • In your personal CV you can of course also draw attention to your favorite projects and organizations through blog posts, photos and videos
  • If you run an organization yourself, you can also create a personal profile. This personal profile offers the opportunity to show the people behind an organization. This can strengthen the organization's message and showcase the organization's work in a personal way
