Media Use in the North Caucasus in 2009
- Results of the public opinin polls will
regularly be published on www.caucasustimes.com in
a special rubric OPINION POLLS, which already contains the results
of the polls held in 2005-2007.
- Based on positive experience of publishing
a special brochure on public opinion in the North Caucasus in 2005-2006, Caucasus Times is going to
summarize the media research results for 2008, to add analysis made by the
experts and to publish those results as a separate booklet under the title
“MEDIA USE IN THE NORTH CAUCASUS IN 2008: MAJOR TENDNECIES” with approximate
circulation of 999 copies. These booklet will be published in
Prague. Each
booklet will consist of approximately 70-75 pages of F-4 format, font 12 (50
pages in Russian and 50
in English). Network of Caucasus Times correspondents
will be used for distributing those booklets in Moscow and in North
Caucasus republics among diplomatic missions, Russian state
bodies, international and Russian human rights and humanitarian organizations
and NGOs. We also are planning to gradually arrange subscription for our
booklets in both hard copies and electronic form.
- In addition, we are also going to make
public presentation of our opinion polls in both Prague and in the North
Caucasus two times during this
year.
5. EVALUATION
PLAN
Main criterion evaluating the implementation
of the Caucasus Times media project is the level of demand and interest in its
materials from the audience. This can be evaluated by the references to the
results of the media opinion polls held by CaucasusTimes in various mass media
as well as by new initiatives in the field of opinion research in the North
Caucasus taken by Russian and foreign NGOs. Another criterion is a number of
subscribers for the CaucasusTimes booklets.
BUDGET OF THE PROGECT IS:
$ 22,940
