Abstract
The use of TikTok as a political communication tool is a recent phenomenon with research on the issue emerging. The potential of TikTok as an institutional communication tool started to become apparent in 2020. Although some international organisations, such as the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies or the FAO, had accounts since 2019, the shift in perception towards the platform and its widespread use in the field was triggered by the COVID pandemic crisis.
