How far and wide should people (and especially community builders) spread this and encourage others to fill it in? For example, I could ask people from my local group to fill in the survey, but I don’t want to skew the results.
Thanks for asking! We would definitely encourage community builders to share it with their groups. Indeed, in previous years, CEA has contacted group organizers directly about this. We would also encourage EAs to share it with others EAs (e.g. on their Facebook page) using the sharing link. I would not be concerned about you ‘skewing the results’ by sharing and encouraging people to take the survey in this way, in general, so long as you don’t go to unusual lengths to encourage people (e.g. multiple reminders, offering additional incentives to complete it etc.).
