There is an IAVCEI group developing community-wide considerations for responsible communication of volcanic hazards on social media, and we need your perspective. Please fill out the survey linked below by April 12, 2019. https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/P6PQR57 ----- *The longer version: *Building off a day-long workshop at CoV 10 (W.5 | Social Media Utility in Volcano and Hazard Communication <https://www.citiesonvolcanoes10.com/workshops-list/w-5/>), the Communications Working Group within the IAVCEI Commission on Volcano Hazards and Risk began work on coordinating ways to responsibly communicate volcano information on social media during times of crisis, when both public and professional trust and safety are at stake. We began compiling considerations based on conversations at and after the workshop. However, we need the broader perspective of those of you who were not in the room. *We seek input from everyone communicating about volcanoes on social media*, or interested in doing so. You do not need to be an expert. However, those of you with experience in communicating during times of unrest are especially encouraged to fill out this survey. We also seek diverse perspectives that include agency and non-agency scientists and communicators; broad geographic, economic/resource, language, and cultural representation; and people of various career stages. [NOTE: If you were at the CoV social media workshop, please still fill out this survey!] Answers to the linked questionnaire will be used to inform a set of considerations for communication; the questionnaire will not be used in any research capacity and specific findings will not be reported. This is merely a way to gather input. With questions or further comments, contact Wendy Stovall (wstovall@xxxxxxxx) or Beth Bartel (bartel@xxxxxxxxxx). Please share this questionnaire with other members of the volcanology community. And finally, *thank you* in advance for taking the time to fill this out by April 12, 2019.
