World Bank Group Country Survey 2023 - Gambia

Abstract
---------------------------

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

Geographic coverage

Greater Banjul Area, West Coast Region, North Bank Region, Lower River Region, and Central River Region.

Kind of data
---------------------------

Sample survey data [ssd]

Sampling procedure
---------------------------

From February to May 2023, 301 stakeholders of the WBG in The Gambia were invited to provide their opinions on the WBG’s work in the country by participating in a Country Opinion Survey. Participants were drawn from the Office of the President, Prime Minister, Minister; National Assembly, government institutions; local governments; bilateral/multilateral agencies; private sector; civil society organizations; academia, research institutes, and
think tanks and the media.

Mode of data collection
---------------------------

Internet [int]

Research instrument
---------------------------

The survey was implemented in English

Response rate
---------------------------

The response rate was 88%

The results of this year’s Country Survey were compared to those of the Country Survey conducted in FY18 (response rate was 43%, N=517). Comparing responses across Country Surveys reflects changes in attitudes over time, but also changes in respondent samples and changes to the survey instrument itself. To reduce the influence of the latter factor, only those questions with similar response scales/options are analyzed.
This year’s survey saw an increased outreach to and/or response from academia, and media, but a decrease in outreach to and/or response from the government institutions. These differences in the stakeholder composition between the two years should be taken into consideration when interpreting the results of the past year's comparison analyses.

2023年2月至5月期间，冈比亚301位WBG利益相关者被邀请参与国家意见调查，以表达对WBG在该国工作的看法。参与者来自总统办公室、总理、部长；国民议会、政府机构；地方政府；双边/多边机构；私营部门；民间社会组织；学术界、研究机构和智库，以及媒体。

响应率
---------------------------
响应率为88%

今年国家调查的结果与财政年度18年（响应率为43%，N=517）进行的国家调查结果进行了比较。跨国家调查的响应比较反映了态度随时间的变化，但也反映了受访者样本的变化以及调查工具本身的变化。为了减少后者的影响，仅分析了具有相似响应尺度/选项的问题。

今年的调查增加了对学术界和媒体的覆盖范围及响应，但减少了与政府机构接触和/或响应的数量。在解释过去一年比较分析结果时，应考虑两年间利益相关者组成之间的这些差异。'}
