IFES Україна оголошує тендер на проведення післявиборчого опитування

IFES Україна шукає постачальника послуг для проведення післявиборчого опитування з метою виявлення ключових аспектів, які вплинули на участь громадян України у місцевих виборах 2020 року, а також ефективності заходів, які було вжито органами адміністрування виборів для усунення побоювань виборців, пов’язаних із COVID-19. IFES використовуватиме дані, отримані за результатами опитування, для надання рекомендацій Центральній виборчій комісії (ЦВК) щодо її стратегій та вивчених уроків.

IFES надає перевагу панельному онлайн опитуванню, але розгляне інші методи проведення онлайн-дослідження.
