It is a scientific project dedicated to accurate and precise measurement of the attitudes of nationally representative samples of African populaces. Given its substantive focus on attitudes about democracy, markets and civil society, it is also a policy relevant project that attempts to insert results into national and global policy discussions through proactive dissemination and outreach.
