Mobilising Voluntary Action in the four UK jurisdictions: Learning from today, prepared for tomorrow

这项四国比较研究的主要目的是批判性地评估针对疫情的社会福利自愿行动反应，帮助指导英国志愿者支持国家复苏和为未来危机做好准备的努力，并为UKRI关于不平等和国家复苏的研究问题提供信息(1)。这项四个国家的研究将由一个英国团队(学者，每个国家的四个关键行业基础设施机构)提供，并得到一个项目合作伙伴咨询小组的支持(来自专业网络、组织和相关的ESRC投资)。该研究是共同设计的，并将实践联合制作的原则。分析框架是一种以理论为基础的评估技术(2)，对复杂系统的过程评估进行了改进(3)。将在四个国家进行案头证据收集，由基础设施机构的COIS(Q2.2)协助，并得到项目伙伴(2.3)的支持。关键证据：国家自愿行动政策文件；对政策制定者的虚拟访谈；通过自愿行动形式(COI和项目合作伙伴网络)快速收集证据，以及来自匹配应用程序/平台的匿名数据。将采用统一的编码框架进行数据分析，在综合分析之前进行国家分析，将四个国家联系起来，以确定相似和不同之处。关键反馈和验证将由项目合作伙伴提供(第二次咨询小组会议)。将通过互动网站分享新的调查结果；定期举行网络研讨会；通报恢复情况的中期审查简报，通报未来规划的审查结束简报，在颁奖活动虚拟结束时介绍(每个国家一次)。

The overarching aim of this four nation comparative study is to critically evaluate social welfare voluntary action responses to the pandemic, to help guide the UK volunteer effort to support the national recovery and prepardeness for future crises, and indoing so inform UKRI research questions on inequality and national recovery (1). The four nation study will be delivered by a UK-wide team (academics, the four key sector infrastructure bodies for each nation), supported by a Project Partner advisory panel (from professional networks, organisations and related ESRC investments).It has been co-designed, and will be co-delivered practising the principles of co-production. The analytical framework is a theory-based evaluation technique (2) with refinements from process evaluation of complex systems (3). A desk-based collection of evidence will be undertaken across the four nations facilitated by CoIs (Q 2.2) from the infrastructure bodies and supported by Project Partners (2.3). Key evidence: national voluntary action policy documents; virtual interviews with policy makers; rapid evidence gathering via voluntary action pro-forma (CoI and Project Partner networks) and anonymised data from matching apps/ platforms. A common coding frame will be employed for data analysis, within country analysis preceding integrated analysis, linking the four nations to identify similarities and differences. Critical feedback and validation will be provided by Project Partners (second Advisory Panel meeting). Emerging findings will be shared via an interactive website; regular webinars; mid review briefings to inform recovery, end of review briefing informing future planning, presented at virtual end of award events (one per nation).
