This report is prepared by Social Indicator (SI), the survey research arm of the Centre for Policy Alternatives (CPA), on the findings of the ‘Confidence in Democratic Governance Index’ survey (Wave 6). This island-wide survey captures the public perception/opinion on the current situation of the country, in terms of the legitimacy and accountability of the government’s conduct, and initiations related to economic reforms, reconciliation, good governance, and democracy. The objective of this survey is to inform the current political debate on the views of the silent majority of the country that underpin Sri Lanka’s democratic culture. Thereby, SI-CPA envisages this survey report would contribute to a rich political debate, in the run-up to the presidential election, that is vital for people to make an informed decision at this crucial election. Fieldwork for the survey was carried out from the 1st to the 12th of July 2024 with 1352 sample respondents.
The Sinhala and Tamil versions of the report will be published in due course.
