Social Marketing, welfare indicators and SDG. Analysis of the official account of the Spanish Government @desdelamoncloa

Main Article Content

Abstract

Social platforms are new instruments for gathering information and raising awareness, an opportunity for social marketing to use these resources in decision making of governance. Through these platforms, such as Twitter, governments can obtain useful information from other users in making decisions to improve the welfare of society and to promote sustainable development. It can also raise awareness among citizens about those policies that are necessary for welfare and sustainable development. Therefore, in this work it is made a descriptive study of the content of the messages published by @desdelamoncloa, the official account of the Spanish government, and its relation with the sustainable development objectives (SDG) and the Sustainable Welfare Indicator. Using the methodology of content analysis, from the qualitative and quantitative perspectives, the results show that the most published SDGs are not the most popular ones. Likewise, the conversational messages, in which well-being is related to gender equality and inequalities, stand out. In addition, it has been found that the impact has been greater in the SDGs included in the Welfare element.
