Thanks for taking the Movement Citizen Summit Survey!

Answer as many questions as you like, but be sure to click "done" at the bottom when you've finished. This survey will constantly change as we get new wisdom from the live chat. Here are some examples of recent contributions that might shape our course, IF you agree with them:

Question Title

1. "We must engage in a Gandhian way with the ethno-nationalists. Let’s reach out, listen and connect deeply to what we we have in common. Not to fight them, but to transform them" Pascal, Switzerland." Do you:

Question Title

2. "I would like to see Avaaz and like-minded folk become avowedly political groupings that offer angry and disillusioned voters an alternative to the far right and the self-serving political systems" -- Peter Robertson, UK. Do you:

Question Title

3. "I am thinking about a new way to organise the economy. It is important to have an alternative positive vision around which to gather and build a more beautiful world if the current system collapses" -- Jackie, Canada. Do you:

Question Title

4. "We need to make an unequivocal, line-in-the-sand stand, and say that we will NOT let hate, fear, and division rule us. Too often, progressive voices are expected to offer the olive branch and 'present both sides of the argument', even when those sides are not of equal merit. No more. We must become a loudspeaker for the fact that immigrants, refugees, LGBT people, et al, are not the source of people's problems -- it's decades of right-wing governments and authoritarians who undermine public services and remove social safety nets" -- Matt, UK. Do you:

Question Title

5. "We have to find ways to make clear to as many people as possible that we have to create a future for our children together by making sacrifices in order to control climate change. Or else our children and grandchildren will have no earth, no future. Besides we have to promote consciousness as much as possible that we are ONE humanity, that we only will survive by helping each others as brothers and sisters" -- Cor, Netherlands. Do you:

Question Title

6. "Fight misinformation on a massive level. There is an entire infrastructure built on lying and when it's big enough people will start to believe in an alternate reality. Without this massive misinformation behemoth Trump would not have become president. We need to have people countering every single ignorant and false comment with patient fact-based answers, and not brush them off as 'crazy' or 'deluded'. Given the amount of vileness on youtube, Facebook, twitter, etc., is this a hopeless mission?" -- Ivan, Switzerland. Do you:

Question Title

7. "Avaaz must speak for the all the victims. Yes it must speak for refugees of war and of climate change. But it must acknowledge the fears of an ex-steelworker in Ohio who has no hope or the farmer worker in Lincolnshire who feels her livelihood is being taken away by low-paid workers from 'abroad'. These people's fears are real and it is their fear that has a voice and they are giving that voice to Trump, Farage and Le Pen" -- Henry, UK. Do you:

Question Title

8. How do we best respond to spreading ethnic nationalism?

Question Title

9. What should be the top priority strategic focus of Avaaz campaigning in the coming year?

Question Title

10. How ambitious should Avaaz be about our role in what happens next? Each of the following statements have value. But which one do you lean towards as better framing for how we should approach this moment?

Question Title

11. Avaaz has a tiny team, and we have to choose wisely where we focus our limited capacity. Which balance of focus seems best to you for the coming year:

Question Title

12. From Camille, Campaigner in France: "Climate change remains likely the biggest challenges our generation has to face, and the election of Donald Trump is putting the current positive dynamics at serious risk. What should we do next to keep pushing the issue in the right direction?"

Question Title

13. Rene, Campaigner from Germany: "I feel we have to respect the US election result, we have to treat Trump as we'd treat any other president, but that does not mean we will excuse, overlook or forget any of the divisive things he says or does. Every wrong turn he takes, I feel we have to be there. The question is which is the best direction for us to prioritise"

Question Title

14. From the Avaaz media team: "As a communications team, we've focused on developing communications and media strategies to win campaigns rather than building awareness of Avaaz with the wider public. Is now the moment to broaden our team's focus to shine the light of this movement more brightly in the world?"

Question Title

15. From Avaaz Deputy Director Emma Ruby-Sachs: "If we have time for one focus in 2017 to respond to the rise of ethno-nationalism (like Trump, some Brexit supporters, Marie LePen etc) should we:
