The Centre for Policy Research and Strategy Studies (CepRass) has been adjudged the top performing new member of the Afrobarometer network. CepRass, who joined the Afrobarometer network in 2018, was honoured for their timely and efficient execution on Afrobarometer’s fieldwork and dissemination requirements and the production of high quality outputs.

Afrobarometer, which is marking its 20th anniversary this year, is a non-partisan survey research project that measures public attitudes and perceptions on democracy, governance, economic conditions, and related issues in Africa. In its seventh round of national surveys in 2016-2018, the network overcame funding challenges to complete surveys in 34 countries while successfully transitioning from paper-based to electronic data collection.
