RESEARCH ABSTRACT: This mixed-methods study explores the impact of the Rsvp platform on social connectedness during the COVID-19 pandemic. Participants attend an online gathering via the invite-only system and complete pre- and post-gathering surveys. Data analysis includes descriptive statistics and thematic analysis. The study aims to provide insights into the role of online gatherings in reducing isolation and fostering a sense of community, with Rsvp serving as a model for secure and inclusive virtual gatherings.
CHALLENGE: Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, virtual events have become a popular alternative to in-person gatherings. However, many online platforms lack the necessary features to create a sense of community and connectedness. The challenge is to design a virtual event platform that enhances social connectedness and fosters a sense of community for online gatherings among friend groups, with a focus on security and inclusivity.
