KONDA Research has been conducting a series of monthly political and social surveys called BAROMETRE since 2010. In addition to the standard questions on demographic characteristics, political preferences and economic expectations that we regularly ask in every BAROMETER survey, we also ask questions to measure the public's perspective on the issues that are on the public agenda at the time and their perceptions and expectations in different areas. The research, which is the 153rd in the Barometer research series, was conducted on May 4-5, 2024 in 171 neighborhoods and villages of 100 districts, including the central districts of 28 provinces, by face-to-face interviews with 2826 people in their households.
