Charity Digital have released this years Charity Digital Skills Report - the annual barometer of digital skills, attitudes and support needs across the sector.
The report provides deeper insights than ever into organisations' differing needs, and the ways in which funders and digital specialists can help address these. The report summarises the ways in which the sector has changed as a result of the pandemic - and looks at needs across a wide range of areas: leadership, funding, strategy, skills, accessibility, diversity, inclusion - and much more.
The report aims to:
- Map charities' digital priorities as we enter the next phase of the pandemic. How important is digital in their future plans and where do they see it in their future?
- Understand the key trends in how charites' use of digital has changed over the last year, so that you can benchmark your organisation.
- Track progress made over the last five years and what this means for the sector.
- Measure where charities have skills gaps and what they need to grow their digital knowledge and confidence.
- Gather data on what funding and support needs charities have to help them move forward with digital so that we can take these findings to grant makers and recommend what they need to do more effectively.
Take a look at the report hub for an overview from the authors, as well as perspectives from organisations including The National Lottery Community Fund, The Clothworkers’ Foundation, Shelter, DataKind UK, ACEVO - and Catalyst.
