Empowered Communities in the 2020s: Feedback on the first 50 responses to the opening survey

As part of the scoping stage for the 'Empowered Communities in the 2020s' project, we invited people interested in contributing to the research to complete a short survey asking how they would like to be involved; what they felt was most important to help communities become more empowered and vibrant; and for examples of where we might look for empowered communities. This short report summarises responses received from 20 March – 11 April 2017. In addition to using this data to help develop the research, we are also able to see where to target to get further survey responses that will achieve a good geographic spread of voices and perspectives. The survey will be open until the end of June 2017.
