One of the many uses of social media, and one where it's more valuable for society at large, is as an awareness generator. Through social media, there is a real chance to create awareness of relevant information that other wise might go unnoticed.
Mainly because the users of social media themselves can generate, or share, the information needed to bring attention to the issues that matter to them. Social media allows people to take their issues directly to others, so it makes it a lot easier to connect with people that can help solving the issue at hand.
Social media helps to remove obstacles, and makes it easier to for people to find the help they need.
The awareness that social media can help generate can be more useful, since it lets the people that need the help connect directly connect with the people that can help. This direct line of communication makes people to be more willing to help, since they can communicate directly with those who they help or intend to help. The level of trust that can be gained this way cannot be understated.
When people connect with people, great things can happen. And social media can be a key component to help connecting people directly, allowing them to work together in ways that before where almost unheard of.
With social media, more and more people are finding out that their voice can be heard by a wider audience. As such, they can join other people that have the same goals or had the same problems in order to find ways to solve whatever problem they have. People find out that they are not alone, and they can reach out for help or support.
Social media has the potential to play a key part on constructing a better world.
