EUpinions

EUpinions is an independent platform dedicated to analyzing and reporting on European public opinion. It operates under the Bertelsmann Stiftung and uses advanced data collection methods to provide quarterly surveys across all EU member states. These surveys cover a broad range of topics, including political challenges, societal trends, and people's perceptions of current events. The data collected is representative of Europe's diverse demographics, ensuring insights into opinions on age, gender, education, and regional differences. Their research aims to highlight how Europeans view issues affecting the continent and foster discussions on Europe's future. EUpinions publishes reports exploring key societal and political themes, such as globalization, populism, empathy, and the EU's role in global affairs. These studies provide valuable insights into how various social groups perceive pivotal issues like migration, security, and democracy. For example, they have investigated the growing support for greater European independence in international relations and examined how optimism, pessimism, or nostalgia shape political behavior and attitudes toward EU cooperation. The platform serves as an accessible resource for policymakers, academics, and the public, giving Europeans a voice in addressing the continent's most pressing concerns. By focusing on evidence-based insights, EUpinions aims to bridge gaps in understanding and contribute to informed decision-making on European policy and governance.
