What is The Disaster Diaries of Rhyane Jane?

It’s the first media production of Let’s Talk Public Health, and we’re absolutely and completely excited about it. The Disaster Diaries of Rhyane Jane (DDRJ) is an edutainment web series that includes:
  • A serial fiction podcast about a girl, Rhyane Jane or RJ, who survives a mega-tsunami and has to fend for herself until help arrives. With each episode, you are hearing an entry in RJ's journal as she chronicles her survival and recovery in a disaster zone. 
  • ​A blog with posts discussing:
    • Items in RJ's emergency kit, how to acquire and store them, and how they may be useful in an emergency or disaster situation;
    • Prep tips for emergency and disaster preparedness; and
    • The science and facts behind the series.

Social Media Today says tweets with GIFs generate 6X more engagement than tweets with basic text updates, and are 3X as likely to be retweeted than tweets with images.

Preparedness 101: Zombie Apocalypse
