From January to March 2026, a total of 1,064 stakeholders in Türkiye 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 fielding agency. Participants were drawn from government institutions, bilateral or multilateral agencies, civil society, the private sector, think tanks, academia, and the media. Of these stakeholders, 243 participated in the survey.
23% response rate
This year’s survey results were compared to the FY23 Country Opinion Survey, which had a response rate of 15% (N= 167). Comparing responses across Country Surveys reflects changes in attitudes over time, as well as changes in respondent samples, methodology, and the survey instrument itself. To reduce the influence of the latter factor, only those questions with similar response scales/options were analyzed. Comparing the stakeholder composition across both surveys, there were more respondents from civil society and academia in FY26 compared to FY23, but fewer respondents from government institutions and bilateral/multilateral agencies. These differences in stakeholder composition across the two survey years should be considered when interpreting year-to-year comparisons.
The survey was conducted in English and Turkish. The English version is provided as related material.
