World Bank Group Country Survey 2023 - Nepal

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

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

Sample survey data [ssd]

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

From June 2023 to August 2023 , a total of 1,106 stakeholders of the WBG in Nepal were invited to provide their opinions about the WBG’s work in the country by participating in a Country Opinion Survey (COS). A list of potential participants was compiled by the WBG country team and the fielding agency. Participants were drawn from the Office of the President, Prime Minister, Minister, Parliament, Government Institutions, Local Governments, Bilateral/ Multilateral Agencies, Private Sector, Civil Society, Academia, University Students and the Media. Of these stakeholders, 497 participated in the survey (45 % response rate)

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

The response rate was 45 %

The results of this year’s survey were compared to the FY19 Survey with a response rate of 65% (N=421). Comparing responses across Country Surveys reflects changes in attitudes over time, but also changes in respondent samples, changes in methodology, and changes to the survey instrument itself. Only questions with similar response scales/options were analyzed to reduce the latter factor's influence. This year’s survey saw an increased outreach to and/or response from bilateral/multilateral agencies, but a decrease from local governments and civil society. Additionally, a new group of university students was invited to participate in the survey. These differences in stakeholder composition between the two years should be taken into
consideration when interpreting the results of the past year's comparison analyses.

抽样程序
---------------------------
自2023年6月至2023年8月，尼泊尔WBG的1,106位利益相关者被邀请参与国家观点调查（COS），以提供他们对WBG在该国工作的看法。WBG国家团队和实地调查机构共同编制了潜在参与者的名单。参与者来自总统办公室、总理、部长、议会、政府机构、地方政府、双边/多边机构、私营部门、民间社会、学术界、大学生及媒体。在这些利益相关者中，有497人参与了调查（响应率为45%）。

响应率

响应率为45%。
今年调查的结果与财年19的调查结果进行了比较，后者响应率为65%（N=421）。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、方法的变化以及调查工具本身的变化。仅分析了具有相似响应尺度/选项的问题，以减少后者的影响因素。今年调查增加了对双边/多边机构以及/或来自地方政府和民间社会的响应范围，但有所减少。此外，还邀请了一组大学生参与调查。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构成的不同。
