Fun is the second motivator for participation in the Waze community:

Top 5 insights from the open answers:
Waze local leadership should be more proactive and initiate more ongoing communication
Waze leadership should be more dynamic
Difficulty in progressing within the community, the map is locked too high
Community Managers should interact more with the community
New editors should have more editing resources

Next steps:
Each Community Manager should set office hours or schedule a webinar with their communities in order to discuss results and required improvements
In June 2020, we’ll run a follow up survey to check current community status and compare with previous results

Thank you again for your amazing cooperation!
Shira, on behalf of the Communities team
