The Archdiocese of Manila is nominated as Best Diocesan Website in the 2018 Catholic Social Media Awards (CSMA).
The website of the Archdiocese of Manila (www.rcam.org) serves as a source of information on the Archdiocese of Manila and for mainstream media. It also features various events and activities of the Social Communications Ministry of the different parishes in the archdiocese.
The website was launched on July 25, 2003, with the initiative of then Manila Auxiliary Bishop Socrates B. Villegas under the term of then Manila Archbishop Jaime L. Cardinal Sin.
It was re-designed and was relaunched on March 3, 2012, during Manila Archdiocesan General Pastoral Assembly (MAGPAS) with Manila Archbishop Luis Antonio G. Cardinal Tagle doing the ceremonial log-on to the website.
In 2016, CSMA awarded the Best Diocesan Website to the Archdiocese of Manila website.
The CSMA recognizes the best communicators of Catholic content through the various social media platforms and believes in the value and importance of online evangelization.
On November 17, 2018, the CSMA will hold its awarding ceremony at Sienna College, Quezon City, at 7 p.m.
The CSMA was organized by Youth Pinoy in collaboration with Areopagus Communication Inc. (Jheng Manalang Prado/RCAM-AOC)
