The Tasmania Project - Wellbeing (PESRAC) Survey

The Tasmania Project was established by the Institute for Social Change at the University of Tasmania to understand how Tasmanians are experiencing and adjusting to the social, political and economic responses to COVID-19. The project aims to support immediate and longer term social and economic decisions by providing useful, evidence-based and timely information, and share Tasmanian residents' experiences and ideas through this critical period and beyond.

This dataset is for the Wellbeing (PESRAC) Survey, which was open from 19 October - 22 November 2020 and had a final sample size of 2354 respondents. The survey consisted of three sections: 1. Wellbeing (adapting indicators from the OECD Better Life Index), 2. Tasmania’s recovery from COVID-19, 3. Demographic information.

This survey was part of Phase 2 of the consultation process conducted by the Premier's Economic and Social Advisory Council (PESRAC) and was designed to support PESRAC in developing advice to the Government on COVID-19 recovery strategies.
