> RAND Europe is conducting fieldwork for the European Commission on  
> the evaluation of self- and co-regulation in various online  
> sectors, looking at social networking organisations such as Bebo  
> and SecondLife, security and standards institutions including W3C  
> and IETF, and content regulation including particularly European  
> self- and co-regulatory institutions.

> Our assessment will cover self-regulatory organisations'  
> efficiency, effectiveness and sustainability in order to identify  
> conditions under which such institutional arrangements can best  
> stimulate innovation without compromising safety, security and  
> fundamental rights. The ultimate aim is to support EC efforts to  
> further these objectives by initiating and/or mediating self- and  
> co-regulation.
>
> The evaluation will be based on documentary, quantitative, elite  
> interview and electronic survey evidence, analyzed within a logical  
> framework reflecting existing knowledge of the evolution of self-/ 
> co- regulation. The findings and recommendations will be validated  
> by means of a key stakeholder workshop and reported in a form  
> suitable for wide dissemination and discussion.
