Este articulo esta centrado en los resultados de la observacion de las redes sociales que utilizan 7 ONG en Medellin-Colombia y esta enmarcado en la investigacion “Colombia: ONG, Relaciones Publicas, recaudacion de fondos y postconflicto”, cuyo objetivo es describir la realidad comunicativa de las ONG en Colombia a fin de determinar si estan preparadas a nivel de gestion de las relaciones publicas para obtener los recursos financieros que les permitan cumplir su rol en el posconflicto colombiano. Inicialmente se trabajo en la construccion de un marco teorico que permitiera fundamentar los resultados y posterior discusion de estos. Los cinco conceptos clave de este marco fueron: Comunicacion, Organizaciones No Gubernamentales, comunicacion estrategica, relaciones publicas y redes sociales. Posteriormente se hizo una observacion con una ventana de tiempo de 5 semanas, comprendidas entre los meses de abril y mayo de 2018. Las caracteristicas propias de los medios digitales, fueron el eje central del analisis de las publicaciones con las cuales se trabajo.  Para esta segunda parte se tuvieron en cuenta 4 variables: ?cuales redes sociales utilizaban?, ?que tipo de contenido publicaban en ellas?, ?cual era la tematica mas recurrente en dichas publicaciones? y los parametros de redaccion. La metodologia utilizada combino lo cualitativo y lo cuantitativo. Dentro de las conclusiones se encontro una correlacion baja entre la teoria sobre el uso estrategico de las redes sociales y lo que hacen estas organizaciones en la practica. Palabras clave: medios sociales, relaciones publicas, organizacion no gubernamental, estrategias de comunicacion, redes sociales, comunicacion digital Abstract This article focuses on the observation of social networks utilized by seven NGOs in Medellin-Colombia. It is a result of the research project "Colombia: NGOs, Public Relations, fundraising and post-conflict", whose objective was to describe the communicative reality of NGOs in Colombia, in order to determine whether they are prepared, at the level of public relations management, to obtain the financial resources needed to fulfill their expected role in the Colombian post-conflict. This study´s significance lies on the worldwide trend of the use of online technologies by non-governmental organizations in connecting with their target audiences. According to the results of the study, in its 2017 version, in Latin America, the average number of subscribers in NGO´s social networks ranges between 2,300, for small NGO´s, and 50,000 for large NGOs; 48% of these accept donations online; 94% have a profile on Facebook and 54% have a profile on Instagram. (Nonprofit Tech for Good, 2017) In developing this article, the researcher initially worked on building a theoretical framework that would allow a proper grounding of the results and their subsequent discussion. The five key concepts of this framework were: Communication, Non-Governmental Organizations, strategic communication, public relations and social networks. Subsequently, an observation was made with a time window of five weeks, between April and May 2018. Four criteria were considered in choosing the sample: 1. The researcher sought organizations that were affiliated to the Antioquian Federation of NGOs, since this guarantees that they are legally constituted entities, all possessing a recognized trajectory and responsibility in the fulfillment of their missions (Antioquian Federation of NGOs, 2018: 1). 2. Preference was given to NGOs based on the city of Medellin, one of the regions in Colombia with the largest number of these organizations. In addition, this allowed the researcher geographical closeness and the possibility of greater contact with the sample. 3. Focus was on NGOs that work on post-conflict issues. 4. First-floor NGOs were chosen, that is, those with direct contact with the beneficiaries of their actions. In order to collect the information, the researcher developed a matrix to record the activity that each entity developed in the networks. The characteristics of digital media were the central axis of the analysis of these publications. For this second part, four variables were taken into account:  1. Which social networks did the NGOs use? 2. What kind of content did they publish on them? 3. What was the most frequently recurring theme in these publications? And finally, 4. What where the composition parameters of the messages employed? This methodology utilized a mixture of qualitative and quantitative variables. Results allowed the researcher to show that all the organizations observed in the sample have profiles in the currently most popular social networks; however, their publications do not consider all the parameters that digital communication theory prescribes as needed for success. Among the conclusions of the study then, a low correlation was found between the theory of the strategic use of social networks, and the day-to-day practice of these organizations.
