10. SOCIAL POLL COMMENTS
Yes Social Media can help because
nowadays those media play an
important role in several fields.
I think that before any action on
fighting corruption, sensitization
and education are 2 sine qua non
conditions.
Nawal, Morocco
Yes but it needs appropriate Web plate-form
Abdelhak, Morocco
Yes but citizens needs sensitization and education
11. SOCIAL POLL COMMENTS
I think social media can help a lot but it needs
dedicated platform that can be controlled.
The problem beyond that participation is the
truthfulness of the information relayed.
Lamia, Morocco
Yes but it needs appropriate Web plate-form
12. SOCIAL POLL COMMENTS
Yes, social media can help fight
corruption provided that the National
Forum for the fight against this scourge
can have the means and instruments to
accomplish its mission.
The problem of social networks in
France: not enough inter-actions! a
relay of information is insufficient
for such determination…

32. « A tribe is a group of people
connected to one another, connected to
a leader, and connected to an idea. For
millions of years, human beings have
been part of one tribe or another. A
group needs only two things to be a
tribe: a shared interest and a way to
communicate. ... Tribes need
leadership. Sometimes one person leads,
sometimes more. People want connection
and growth and something new. They want
change. ... You can't have a tribe
without a leader - and you can't be a
leader without a tribe. »
Seth Godin
