Afetlerin yönetim sorumluluğu ise kamu hizmetleri ile doğrudan bağlantılı olmaları nedeniyle devlet yönetim organlarına atfedilmektedir. Kamu kurumlarının afet dönemlerinde ortaya çıkan yoğun enformasyon ihtiyacını karşılamak üzere gerçekleştirdikleri afet iletişimi ise kamusal halkla ilişkiler bağlamında değerlendirilebilmektedir. Afet iletişimi, afetle ilgili bilgilerin geniş hedef kitlelere hızlı bir biçimde iletilmesini gerektiren bir süreçtir ve sosyal medya afet iletişiminin gerçekleştirilmesi için önemli bir kapasite önermektedir. Bu çalışmada 2021 ve 2022 yıllarında gerçekleşen orman yangınları özelinde sosyal medyanın afet iletişimi amaçlı kullanımını ortaya koymak üzere nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden içerik analizi tekniğinin kullanıldığı bir araştırma gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmada doğrudan kendi faaliyet alanları ile bağlantılı olması nedeniyle afet iletişimini gerçekleştirmekten sorumlu olan Tarım ve Orman Bakanlığı, Orman Genel Müdürlüğü ile Tarım ve Orman Bakanı’nın resmî Twitter hesapları üzerinden bir inceleme yapılmıştır. Hem resmî hesaplarda paylaşılan içerikler hem de bu içeriklere diğer sosyal medya kullanıcılarının verdikleri yanıtların analize tabi tutulması yoluyla sosyal medyanın kamu kurumları ve vatandaşlar tarafından afet iletişimi amaçlı kullanımının tespiti amaçlanmıştır. Elde edilen bulgular orman yangınları döneminde afet iletişimini gerçekleştiren kamu kurum ve temsilcilerinin odaklandığı ilk üç amacın bilgilendirme (n=315), meşrulaştırma (n=214) ve açıklama (n=148) olduğuna işaret etmiştir. Hedef kitlelerin ise tepki gösterme (n=3295), temenni bildirme (n=2793) ve destek verme (n=2601) amaçlarına yoğunlaştığı tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca sosyal medyanın kamusal halkla ilişkilerde afet iletişimi amaçlı kullanımında diyalojik iletişim yaklaşımının benimsenmediği de araştırma bulguları ile ortaya konmuştur.</p></abstract>

                            <p>Disasters are situations that have the potential to affect and harm all or a large segment of society, and it is not possible to manage them individually or as a group. The responsibility for managing disasters is attributed to public institutions because they are directly associated with public services. Disaster communication conducted by public institutions to meet the intense information needs that arise in times of disaster can be evaluated within the framework of governmental public relations. Disaster communication is a process that requires the rapid delivery of disaster-related information to large target audiences, and social media provides an important capacity for disaster communication. In this study, an investigation was conducted using the technique of content analysis, one of the qualitative research methods. The investigation aimed to uncover the use of social media for disaster communication during the wildfires in 2021 and 2022. The research examined the official Twitter accounts the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, General Directorate of Forestry, and the Minister of Agriculture and Forestry, which are responsible for disaster communication during forest fires. The objective was to determine the use of social media for disaster communication purposes by public institutions and citizens by analyzing both the content shared on official accounts and the responses of other social media users to that content. The findings showed that the first three goals of public institutions and their representatives that engaged in disaster communication during forest fires, were to inform (n=315), legitimize (n=214) and explain (n=148). It was found that the target audiences focused on the purposes of reacting (n=3295), expressing wishes (n=2793) and giving support (n=2601). In addition, it was found that the dialogic communication approach was not used in social media communication for disaster in governmental public relations.</p></trans-abstract>
