Abstract
Latinobarómetro is an annual public opinion survey that involves some 19,000 interviews in 18 Latin American countries, representing more than 400 million inhabitants. Latinobarómetro Corporation researches the development of democracy and economies as well as societies, using indicators of opinion, attitudes, behaviour and values. Its results are used by social and political actors, international organizations, governments and the media. The executive director of the study is Marta Lagos.
The 2009 Latinobarómetro study was supported by a large number of organizations and governments: OAS (Organization of American States); CAF (Corporación Andina de Fomento); SIDA (Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency); AECI (Agencia Espanola de Cooperación Internacional); and CIDA (Canadian International Development Agency). It is also supported by governments of the region.
The International Advisory Council of Latinobarómetro met in May 2008, summoned by ECLAC, to define the topics to be studied in 2008 and 2009. Accordingly, the questionnaire for 2008 contains a module on youth that introduces the theme defined whose results are reported in the report for 2008. The questionnaire for 2009 was drawn up in light of the two major events of the year, beyond the bicentennial and the presidential election: the economic crisis and the coup d’état in Honduras.
