Washington Post/Kaiser/Harvard University Survey Project

About the Partnership:

The Washington Post/Kaiser Family Foundation/Harvard University Survey Project is a joint partnership and an experiment in combining survey research and reporting to better inform the public. The Post, Kaiser, and Harvard jointly design and analyze surveys examining public knowledge, perceptions, and misperceptions on major issues. The Post then reports the results as well as facts to dispel myths and misperceptions, retaining editorial control over content published in the paper. The goal of this project is to contribute to a better understanding of public knowledge on major issues facing the country as well as more effective efforts by the media to educate, inform, and engage citizens in national debates.
