In the end, although the survey tool was drafted and aligned with our Theory of Change, it was **not adequately tested during the pilot**. Time constraints, limited capacity within the team, meant we were unable to pilot the tool with participants in a meaningful or sustained way. Despite this, the development process helped clarify what we value and need from our evaluation: tools that are **relational, low-pressure, and embedded** into everyday practice—not one-off data exercises. **Looking ahead**, we hope to refine and pilot the Social Climate Survey in future projects, with two key ambitions. First, we aim to **trial a “drip-feed” format**, where individual survey items are delivered gradually over time—reducing respondent burden while fostering reflection and ongoing engagement. Second, we plan to **automate the collection and visualisation of responses**, feeding the data directly into evolving **Social Climate Profiles** for each team and circle. These profiles would offer a dynamic snapshot of emotional, relational, and cultural wellbeing—supporting feedback loops, informing peer reflection, and deepening our collective understanding of what makes care feel safe, inclusive, and nourishing. To realise this vision, we are seeking partners and funders who share our interest and commitment to developing this tool further. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com. ## Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters: ``` GET https://play.equal.care/evaluation-framework/the-toolbox/equal-care-coops-social-climate-survey/using-the-social-climate-survey-resources-and-challenges..md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
