The Data of the Public Opinion Barometer in Romania 2000 are available
at: http://www.sfos.ro/main_eng.htm.
In addition, a power-point presentation of the main results of the survey can be
downloaded from this server. The Barometer was launched by the Open Society
Foundation (http://www.soros.org/) Romania
six years ago. The Barometer is the only research of that kind in Romania that
publishes the sample and the questionnaire. The research is undertaken twice a
year: in early spring and in autumn. For each research, the execution and the
verification is done by two separate institutions, selected within a
closed-envelope bid announced through the press. The questionnaire, the sample,
as well as the responsibility for the field survey reside upon the team of
specialists within the Barometer's jury. The new theme of the Barometer is
"Way of life and social structure", including data on the living
standard, life styles, quality of life, evaluation of economic, political and
social policies, as well as an evaluation of the state institutions. This new
line aims at presenting a clearer picture of the social, economic and political
evolutions of the Romanian society.
The data and a presentation of the main results of the Gender Barometer
2000 are also offered by the Open Society Foundation Romania: http://www.sfos.ro/main_eng.htm
This Barometer is one of the most recent programs of the Open Society Romania,
and was launched for the first time in October 2000. It is a unique opinion
poll, looking at the gender problems in Romania. For more information, please
