Not sure if this fits the bill: this is a draft document I submitted to
UNDP Ukraine just before I left Kyiv in October 2014, having completed
my term there as a "Surge" Communications Advisor. This draft document
offers considerations and recommendations for social media messaging
that promotes reconciliation, social inclusion, and peace-building in
Ukraine. It provides ideas for messaging related to promoting tolerance,
respect and reconciliation in the country, and messaging to counter
bigotry, prejudice, inequality, misperceptions and misconceptions about
a particular group of people or different people among Ukrainians as a
whole.

However... this strategy wasn't implemented. I prepared this as part of
the Surge team, but we all left before it was implemented.
