When talking about equality, what do social networks show?

LLYC’s commitment to a more equal and fairer society is to promote and support, through our communications and public affairs consultancy activities, a social transformation that isn’t just talk, but bring about essential and fundamentally integrating change. So at LLYC we wanted to analyze the online conversation about equality, so that we can make better recommendations to those companies, organizations and institutions that want to be part of this movement and make their involvement count.

We focused on Twitter, still a major conversation starter on social and tradition media. A large part of classic media feeds off Twitter and this phenomenon is seen in politics as an opportunity to define issues, positions, and allies. Some of all this has seeped into the area of equality. Its emergence as a hot topic is due to highly varying factors, aside from the present political situation, but its main advocates are no doubt to be found in the emergence of new political parties and the rise of social media.

This study’s conclusions are based on the analysis of almost 18 million tweets posted between January 1, 2019, and February 15, 2020, on equality and feminism issues in the Spanish language.
