America’s Barometer
2018 -2019
LAPOP is the main academic project carrying out public opinion surveys in the Americas. With over thirty years of experience, LAPOP is responsible for the Barometer of the Americas, which aims to measure public opinion on government-related issues and political activities. The survey is conducted in 34 countries in North, Central, South America and as well as a significant number of countries in the Caribbean. In 2019 the research was conducted in Brazil, with the support of FGV EESP Clear and Cepesp / FGV (Center for Politics and Economics of the Public Sector of the Fundação Getúlio Vargas). FGV EESP Clear added questions to the survey to understand public opinion on evidence-based public policy.
