About this survey: 

The Fundamental Rights Survey is the first survey to collect comprehensive and comparable data on people’s experiences and views of their rights in the EU-27. The survey included questions related to rights in a number of different areas, including crime victimisation and safety, data protection and privacy, functioning of the democracy, views on human rights and experiences with public services.

The survey collected data in 29 countries: 27 EU Member States, the United Kingdom (an EU Member State at the time of the survey interviews) and North Macedonia (the only non-EU country with observer status at FRA when the survey was designed). In each country, a representative sample of respondents – ranging from about 1,000 in most countries to about 3,000 in France and Germany – participated in the survey. The survey interviews, which took place between January and October 2019, resulted in a total sample of 34,948 respondents.

The results are representative at the EU level, as well as for each country, of people who are 16 years old or older and usually reside in the country where they took part in the survey.

Information concerning the technical implementation is available in Annex II of the report What do fundamental rights mean for people in the EU?. The dedicated Technical Report will provide further details concerning survey development, fieldwork implementation and outcomes (forthcoming in 2021).
