Sociological survey

Half of Ukrainians want restored ties with non-government-controlled areas show the results of the polling conducted in May and June 2020 which studies people’s perceptions of the human rights challenges triggered by the conflict in the east of Ukraine.

The survey was conducted by the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology at the request of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in Ukraine and ZMINA Human Rights Information Centre using CATI methodology (computer-assisted telephone interviews) based on a random sampling of mobile phone numbers. The sampling is representative of the population of Ukraine aged 18+.

The survey was conducted in all oblasts of Ukraine, apart from the non-government-controlled areas of Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts, and in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea. Polling was conducted at the request of UNDP in Ukraine with financial support from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Denmark.
