The Public Opinion Research Group surveyed 29 countries in FY2012 (July 2011-June 2012), 41 countries in FY2013 (July 2012-June 2013), 42 countries in FY2014 (July 2013-June 2014), 35 countries in FY2015 (July 2014-June 2015), 45 countries in FY2016 (July 2015-June 2016), 35 countries in FY2017 (July 2016-June 2017), and 39 countries in FY2018 (July 2017-June 2018). In FY2019, surveys were conducted in 42 countries. Nearly all of the World Bank Group's client countries are surveyed in every three year cycle. The Country Opinion Survey in Uzbekistan assists the World Bank Group (WBG) in gaining a better understanding of how stakeholders in Uzbekistan 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 Uzbekistan on 1) their views regarding the general environment in Uzbekistan; 2) their overall attitudes toward the WBG in Uzbekistan; 3) overall impressions of the WBG’s effectiveness and results, knowledge work and activities, and communication and information sharing in Uzbekistan; and 4) their perceptions of the WBG’s future role in Uzbekistan.

Sample survey data [ssd] AL MAR CONSULTING Other [oth] English, Russian and Uzbek. Post or Email to complete online. The results of this year’s Country Survey were compared to those of the Country Survey conducted in FY ’16 (response rate was 56%, N = 102). The data were weighted to reach similar stakeholder compositions across both survey years, allowing for more statistically reliable comparisons. Note, there were too few respondents from the office of the President/Prime Minister, the office of Minister, or local government in FY ’16 for these groups to be included, nor were stakeholders who identified themselves as “Other” in the stakeholder category options included in these comparisons. As a result, mean ratings, percentages of respondents, and the total number of respondents in both years are slightly different from those of the original data reported in the FY ’16 COS report and the non-weighted data presented in this report. For the weighted stakeholder breakdown and year comparison results, please refer to Appendix E (see page 93). 32% The user of the data acknowledges that the original collector of the data, the authorized distributor of the data, and the relevant funding agency bear no responsibility for use of the data or for interpretations or inferences based upon such uses. uzbekistan_cos_fy19_datafile_final_.NSDstat Uzbekistan World Bank Group Country Survey 2019 Dataset 352 305 Nesstar 200801 id 352 0 101 452 Survey completion method 352 0 1 2 1 Paper 121 2 Online 231 When you think about the future in Uzbekistan, are you ..?
