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

Sampling

Sampling procedure
From April to May 2015, 290 stakeholders of the WBG in Ethiopia were invited to provide their opinions on the WBG's work in the country by participating in a country opinion survey. Participants were drawn from the Office of the President, the Office of the Prime Minister; office of a minister; office of a parliamentarian; ministries, ministerial departments or implementation agencies; Project Management Units (PMUs) overseeing implementation of WBG projects; consultants/contractors working on WBG-supported projects/programs; local governments; bilateral/multilateral agencies; private sector organizations; private foundations; the financial sector/private banks; NGOs/community based organizations; the media; independent government institutions; trade unions; faith-based groups; youth groups; academia/research institutes/think tanks; the judiciary branch; and other organizations.

A total of 146 stakeholders participated in the survey (50% response rate).
Response rate
50%
Weighting
The results in FY2015 Country Survey were compared to those in the Country Survey conducted in FY2012 (response rate was 53%, N=326). Data were weighted to reach the same stakeholder composition in two years, which allows for year comparisons. Stakeholder groups which were not present in both fiscal years were not included in the comparison. Respondents who belonged to the "other" stakeholder category were not included either. As a result, means of the FY2015 data and the total number of respondents in both years are slightly different from those of the original data reported in appendices A, B, C, and E in the report. For the weighted stakeholder breakdown and year comparison results, please see appendix D (page 101) in the attached report.
