Description:
The activity aims to support citizen-responsive governance and democratic development with rigorous public opinion research on democratic norms, attitudes, and experiences in the Latin America and Caribbean (LAC) region. This will be achieved through four primary work streams: 1) collaborative, periodic, innovative public opinion surveys and research on democratic values, behaviors, and perceptions in LAC; 2) dissemination of data, analysis, and research about democratic norms and attitudes in LAC; 3) support and development of innovative topics and methodologies in public opinion research and analysis; and 4) building the local capacity of researchers and institutions on survey design, data collection, data analysis and reporting, and evidence based policy making. The foundation of these efforts is longitudinal, country, and comparative cross-national trend analysis on topics relevant to the democracy sector in LAC, such as democratic norms and values, perceptions of institutions, and experiences with corruption, crime victimization, and migration.
