From December 2024 to March 2025, a total of 1,086 stakeholders in Sierra Leone were invited to provide their opinions on the WBG’s work by participating in a Country Opinion Survey (COS). A list of potential participants was compiled by the WBG country team and the field agency. Participants were drawn from the offices of the President, Vice-President, Ministers, and members of Parliament, government institutions, local government, bilateral or multilateral agencies, civil society organizations, the private sector, academia/research centers, and the media. Of these stakeholders, 492 participated in the survey.
45% response rate
This year’s survey results were compared to the FY22 Country Opinion Survey, which had a response rate of 91% (N=348). Comparing responses across Country Opinion Surveys reflects changes in attitudes over time, as well as changes in respondent samples, changes in methodology, and changes to the survey instrument itself. To reduce the influence of the latter factor, only those questions with similar response scales/options were analyzed. However, the stakeholder compositions for both survey years should be taken into consideration when interpreting these comparisons, as there were many more respondents from the private sector and fewer from civil society in FY25 than in FY22.
The survey was conducted in English and is provided as related material.
