New technologies and NGOs. This is the focus of a research programme conducted by group of researchers of the London School of Economics and Political Science that investigates the relationship between Web 2.0 online applications (such as weblogs, wikis, RSS feeds, shared photo and video sites like Flickr and YouTube, social networking tools like FaceBook and SecondLife, etc.) and international NGOs.
More and more, corporations and governments are accessing Web 2.0 tools to learn about what citizens/consumers think and have to say, and to act on the basis of this information. Researchers are trying to understand whether international NGOs too are adopting these new technologies to pursue their missions, raise funds, communicate their work and engage with their constituencies/beneficiaries and what the implications of this adoption are.
For this purpose a survey(in English) has been made available online that only takes a few minutes to complete. The researchers hope to reach not only English but also international NGOs.
The survey will be online until the 27th July 2007.
