The World Bank Group Country Opinion Survey Program systematically measures and tracks the perceptions of the World Bank's clients, partners, and other stakeholders across the globe in client countries. The Public Opinion Research Group surveyed 29 countries in FY2012 (July 2011-June 2012) and 41 countries in FY2013 (July 2012-June 2013). In FY2014, surveys were conducted in 42 countries and in FY2015 - in 35 countries. Nearly all of the World Bank Group's client countries are surveyed in three year cycles.
The Country Opinion Survey in Zambia assists the World Bank Group (WBG) in gaining a better understanding of how stakeholders in Zambia perceive the WBG. It provides the WBG with systematic feedback from national and local governments, multilateral/bilateral agencies, media, academia, the private sector, and civil society in Zambia on:
- their views regarding the general environment in Zambia;
- their overall attitudes toward the WBG in Zambia;
- overall impressions of the WBG’s effectiveness and results, knowledge work and activities, and communication and information sharing in Zambia; and
- their perceptions of the WBG’s future role in Zambia.
