Another day, another trend to think about!

The top performing platforms... Gen Z social media is coming of age.
Despite growing competition, Facebook isn’t going anywhere. It tops our global leader board and most younger consumers use it each month. Especially with so many websites using Facebook Login to speed up the sign-in process, it’s well-embedded in people’s online experience.

That being said, Gen Z has a special place for Instagram. In every quarter since Q2 2019, more 16-24s have visited Instagram than Facebook.

Gen Z always gets a lot of attention for challenging the status quo, but older groups are the ones who’ve made the clearest changes to their platform portfolio in the last few quarters. Since 2020, the number of consumers using TikTok monthly outside China has grown by 32%, with the biggest increases coming from Gen X and baby boomers. The app’s growth doesn’t show any signs of slowing and older consumers have a hand in this trend.

Since the end of 2020, slightly more 57-64s log onto social platforms to follow influencers, avoid missing out on things, and connect with good causes. And apps like TikTok are great spaces for them to see fresh content and get bursts of inspiration. Many older adults see themselves as creative (43%), adventurous (28%), and ambitious (26%), especially the TikTokers and Pinners among them. Brands marketing on these sites need to ensure they’re showing older consumers in this light and that their content empowers them to live their best life.

"Baby boomers have an average of 4.6 social media accounts..."

The latest Social Media Trends 2022 report is in and we will share everything you need to take note of during this week!

Why is it important to take note of these trends? Knowing what the media trends are will allow you to create content around those hot topics which will definitely have higher impressions on social media and are likely to be picked up more frequently by consumers. Creating relevant content to a media trend will ensure that you keep your audience engaged.

The first trend we will look at: Time spent on social media

Since 2020, there’s been a 12% rise in people saying they use social media less than they used to.

Since Q2 2021, time spent on social media has increased in 32 of the 47 countries we track, with consumers in MEA upping their usage by around 20 minutes in the space of a few months. This sounds promising, but after taking a step back, we can see that global engagement has generally slowed down.

- SA VS Argentina Rugby Followed Jabulani: Support our sports superstars, local musicians and connect with a proudly South African culture at Café Roux this Heritage Day.
- Robben Island Museum Tour: If you want to engage with our history this heritage weekend, why not do so at a world heritage site with the Robben Island Museum tour.

In an age of enlightenment, technology and modern living, it’s amazing that it has been estimated that nearly 800 million adults worldwide lack even the most basic literacy skills.

International Literacy Day aims to highlight the importance and value of literary education for individuals and groups, as well as provide benefits for the wider global culture.

Head to the library, volunteer for an event, or donate books or money to help improve the world’s ability to read and give people better opportunities in life.

World Autism Awareness Day aims to put a spotlight on the hurdles that people with autism and others living with autism face every day.

As a growing global health issue owing to its increasing exposure in the press and common knowledge, autism is an issue that is only gaining more understanding and WAAD activities are planned every year to further increase and develop world knowledge of children and adults who have autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

What’s more, World Autism Awareness Day goes one step further to celebrate the unique talents of those with autism, while putting a huge focus on the warm embrace and welcome that these skills deserve through community events around the globe.

April Fools’ Day, also called All Fools’ Day, in most countries the first day of April. It received its name from the custom of playing practical jokes on this day—for example, telling friends that their shoelaces are untied or sending them on so-called fools’ errands.
