I haven’t yet written up the scoring criteria. That’s on my to do list.

I’m hoping that who’s doing the social media stuff might come to light from the survey that I’m doing. There was no way to find out just by looking at the sites in this assessment.

The aim behind it is to understand exactly where civil society associations are at the moment. Are they as behind the curve as everyone assumes (and the answer there is, generally yes). Knowing where they are now will help inform the ideas and recommendations for how they can develop the skills and competencies required to see them through the next 15 years.

- when you say “scored average” or “scored very low” for certain characteristics, what kind of scoring is it? Is it a global evaluation by somebody, or are there objective criterai? (not necessarily at this stage, but this would be important info for the final report)
- I’d be interested in knowing WHO is actually doing the social media stuff for these organisations: do they do it in-house, or do they delegate it to an external company? If they do it in-house, what proportion of the “staff” take part (is there one dedicated “community manager” and nobody else touches social media, or are many people participating?)
- also — this is more curiosity — I understand what you’re assessing, but what is the aim behind that assessment? What is driving this research? (you maybe mentioned it and I missed it…)
