Description
The expert survey of journalists was conducted from 18 to 27 January 2023 using a self-completion questionnaire in Google Forms. The survey was conducted by the Ilko Kucheriv Democratic Initiatives Foundation on the request of the Human Rights Centre ZMINA with the support of Freedom House Ukraine.
A total of 132 people participated in the survey. The respondents were selected using the method of voluntary selection and snowballing to the point of saturation. The sample represents only the opinion of the respondents, but it also allows us to talk about certain trends and common assessments of certain phenomena and processes in the journalistic field.
The survey includes questions about freedom of speech and self-censorship in the media environment during the Russian-Ukrainian war.
The data collection contains original survey data. The Excel file (.xlsx) is the original file with the respondents' answers in Ukrainian, provided by the Ilko Kucheriv Democratic Initiatives Foundation. The documentation includes the questions and answer options of the original questionnaire in Ukrainian and English.
Additionally, the data collection contains the "Summary" file, which is an analytical report prepared by the Ilko Kucheriv Democratic Initiatives Foundation and the Human Rights Centre ZMINA. The report uses data from an expert survey of journalists in 2019 and 2023, and the results of focus groups in 2022.
