Pluralism Perceptions Survey

The Global Centre for Pluralism developed the Pluralism Perceptions Survey to generate original data on public levels of intergroup trust and belonging. The survey’s design explores the perceptions of respondents about other groups and the state with the understanding that interactions across groups and with the state can strengthen or weaken pluralism. This is done to ensure consistency and comparability across country contexts. Assessors are provided the results of these surveys to inform completion of the assessment framework.

Pluralism Perceptions Surveys are representative of the population at the national level, meaning that the population of interest is the entire population of a country. Wherever possible, the surveys represent a stratified sample of diversity groups included in the Monitor assessment of a particular country. When a stratified sample size of each group is not possible, we prioritize the national level sample to maintain analytical consistency throughout the Monitor. All participants in the survey are 18 years and above of age.
