The World Bank Group Country Opinion Survey Program (COS) is an ongoing effort to systematically gauge and track the perceptions and views of the World Bank Group's clients and partners across the globe, over time. The survey data provide the institution with more in-depth understanding of the views of stakeholders on issues related to the World Bank's work on the ground (how it operates, its relationships, and its knowledge) and other development related issues. The program is overseen by the department of External and Corporate Relations, Business Intelligence Team.

The Country Opinion Survey in Tanzania assists the World Bank Group (WBG) in better understanding how stakeholders in Tanzania 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 Tanzania on 1) their views regarding the general environment in Tanzania; 2) their overall attitudes toward the WBG in Tanzania; 3) overall impressions of the WBG’s effectiveness and results, knowledge work and activities, and communication and information sharing in Tanzania; and 4) their perceptions of the WBG’s future role in Tanzania.

Sampling
A total of 528 stakeholders in Tanzania were invited to provide their opinions on the WBG’s work by participating in a Country Opinion Survey from May 2023 to July 2023. A list of potential participants was compiled by the WBG country team and the fielding agency. participants were drawn from the Office of the President, Prime Minister, office of a minister or parliamentarian; from government institutions, local governments, bilateral/multilateral agencies, the private sector, civil society, academia, and the media.
The response rate was 53%
The results of this year’s survey were compared to the FY20 Survey (75% response rate, N=250). Comparing responses across Country Surveys reflects changes in attitudes over time, but also changes in respondent samples, changes in methodology, and changes to the survey instrument itself. To reduce the influence of the latter factor, only those questions with similar response scales/options were analyzed. This year’s survey saw an increased outreach to and/or response from civil society and bilateral/multilateral agencies, but a decrease in government principals. These differences in stakeholder composition between the two years should be taken into consideration when interpreting the results of the past year's comparison analyses.
Survey instrument
The survey was implemented in English and Kiswahili
