Background
Participants at the Extinction Rebellion Aotearoa NZ National Digital Hui on Saturday 19 and Sunday 20 January were asked to provide feedback through a google form (survey).
The survey asked five questions:
- On a scale of 1 to 10, where 1 is not helpful, and 10 is helpful, how helpful was today’s hui?
- What is one thing that worked?
- What is one thing that didn’t work?
- What is one thing we could start doing?
- Any comments?
One question is closed, the other four are open.
There were 19 responses. Three were from Saturday and 16 on Sunday. One person participated twice. The survey wasn’t emailed to participants. Anyone who wasn’t present at the end of Saturday and Sunday wouldn’t have had an opportunity to complete the survey. (Please feel free to email [email protected] if you would like to give feedback).
Answers for the four open questions were summarised into common themes to identify the most common feedback provided.
