European Survey Data on Attitudes to Equality and Human Rights: Technical Paper
This report was prepared for the Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission by the Economic and Social Research Institute as part of the Research Programme on Human Rights and Equality.
The report seeks to map the availability of Irish data on attitudes to equality and human rights issues from European surveys carried out by five international organisations over the period 2000 – 2018. Through a search of questionnaires, technical reports and online question banks from over 125 surveys, the research identifies 1,509 attitudinal questions on equality and human rights. The question database was then analysed to identify themes, trends and gaps.
This report is written to inform the development of future research and data work by the Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission, and to identify sources of information which could be harnessed to develop evidence-based policy and by researchers more generally.
The report is accompanied by an Excel spreadsheet which can be downloaded here.
