PROTECT: The impacts of the UN's Global Compacts on Refugees and Migration on the citizens’ recognition of the right to international protection

The University of Bergen, as the lead partner of work package 6 of PROTECT, devised and conducted this survey with fieldwork contribution from the SYNO-CINT-Faktum Consortium of survey firms.

In addition, it provides some potential explanatory variables measured at the individual level, ranging from regular demographic variables (e.g., age, gender, country, region, income) to variables measuring respondents’ position within the global political cleavage system, political orientations, visions about the global political order, notions of citizenship, attitudes to diversity, media use, trust in institutions, etc.

Data were collected in the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Canada, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Lithuania, Mexico, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Turkey , UK and USA.

The data was collected in full compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679) after informed consent from the respondents.
