To do:

1. Interest list - who is interested in moderating? Download and use our document on division of responsibility.
2. Determine which roles are needed (contact person; who has the primary responsibility?)
3. Put together a crisis team. 
4. Put together a set of statistics and other relevant information that you can refer to. Use the Cyber Hate Assistant’s “Why”-tab. 
5. Make a schedule for monitoring accounts.
6. Gather digital evidence. A guide for this is in the Cyber Hate Assistant.
7. Write a logbook.
8. Make a risk assessment. Review potential risks and evaluate the probability and consequences on a scale of 0 - 5.
9. Monitor current events. Use Google alerts.

Remember:

• The subjects that are spread most quickly on social media are cyber hate and politics. 
• Avoid posting things later than 12:00pm on a Friday if monitoring is paused on the weekends. 
• The first four hours after a post are the most critical—this can be used as a guideline. 
• Trolls are looking for poorly moderated sites.  Be available to respond to trolls but also to redirect them to the website for example, or texts with correct information.
