II. Methodology From June to August 2013, 10,200 stakeholders of the World Bank Group in Brazil were invited to provide their opinions on the Bank’s assistance to the country by participating in a country survey. Participants in the survey were drawn from the office of the President, Prime Minister/Minister, office of a parliamentarian, ministries, ministerial departments, or implementation agencies; consultants/ contractors working on World Bank Group-supported projects/programs; project management units (PMUs) overseeing implementation of a project; state Government; municipal governments; bilateral and multilateral agencies; private sector organizations; private foundations; the financial sector/private banks; NGOs; community-based organizations; the media; independent government institutions; trade unions; academia/research institutes/think tanks; faith-based groups, the judiciary branch; and other organizations. A total of 200 stakeholders participated in the survey (2% response rate). Respondents received questionnaires via email and completed them online. Respondents were asked about: general issues facing Brazil; their overall attitudes toward the Bank; the World Bank Group’s effectiveness and results; the Bank’s knowledge work and activities; working with the World Bank Group; the current trends and the Bank’s future role in Brazil; and the Bank’s communication and information sharing in Brazil. Every country that engages in the Country Survey must include specific indicator questions that will be aggregated for the World Bank Group’s annual Corporate Scorecard. These questions are identified throughout the survey report. A. General Issues Facing Brazil: Respondents were asked to indicate whether Brazil is headed in the right direction, what they thought were the top three development priorities in Brazil, and which areas would contribute most to reducing poverty and generating economic growth. B. Overall Attitudes toward the World Bank Group: Respondents were asked to rate their familiarity with the World Bank, Inter-American Development Bank, Latin American Development Bank, and the International Finance Corporation, their perceived effectiveness of these organizations in Brazil, and which of these organizations they work with the most in Brazil. They were asked to rate the Bank staff’s preparedness to help Brazil solve its development challenges, their agreement with various statements regarding t he Bank’s work, and the extent to which the Bank is an effective development partner. 3 The World Bank Group Brazil Country Survey 2013 II.

Respondents were invited to indicate at what level (federal, state, or municipal) the World Bank Group works mostly in Brazil. They were asked if the Bank is most effective when it works in one sector or multi-sectorally. Lastly, they were asked to indicate to what extent they believe the combination of financial, knowledge, and convening services provided by the Bank meets the national development needs of Brazil. C. World Bank Group Effectiveness and Results: Respondents were asked to rate the extent to which the Bank’s work helps achieve development results, the extent to which the Bank meets Brazil’s needs for knowledge services and financial instruments, and the Bank’s level of effectiveness across thirty-two development areas, such as education, public sector governance/reform, health, transport, and anti-corruption. They were also asked to what extent they believe that Brazil receives value for money from the World Bank Group’s fee - based services/products. D. The World Bank Group’s Knowledge: Respondents were asked to indicate the areas on which the Bank should focus its research efforts and to rate the effectiveness and quality of the Bank’s knowledge work and activities, including how significant of a contribution it makes to development results and its technical quality. Respondents were also asked whether they read/consulted the most recent LAC Flagship Report and whether it provided useful information in their work. E. Working with the World Bank Group: Respondents were asked to rate their level of agreement with a series of statements regarding working with the Bank, such as the World Bank Group’s “Safeguard Policy” requirements being reasonable, the Bank imposing reasonable conditions on its lending, disbursing funds promptly, increasing Brazil’s institutional capacity, and providing effective implementation support. F. The Future Role of the World Bank Group in Brazil: Respondents were asked to rate how significant a role the World Bank Group should play in Brazil in the near future and to indicate what the Bank should do to make itself of greater value. Respondents were asked to indicate to what extent they believe the World Bank Group has moved in the right direction in terms of the focus of its work in Brazil and how significant a role international development cooperation should play in Brazil’ s development in the near future at the federal, state, and/or municipal level. 4 The World Bank Group Brazil Country Survey 2013 II. Methodology (continued) G. Communication and Information Sharing: Respondents were asked to indicate how they get information about economic and social development issues, how they prefer to receive information from the Bank, and their usage and evaluation of the Bank’s websites. Respondents were asked about their awareness of the Bank’s Access to Information policy, whether they used/had used the World Bank Group website, and whether they accessed the Bank’s social media channels. Respondents were also asked about their level of agreement that they know how to find information from the Bank, and that the Bank is responsive to information requests.

Background Information: Respondents were asked to indicate their current position, specialization, at what level (federal, state, or municipal) they primarily work at, whether they professionally collaborate with the World Bank Group, whether they worked with the International Finance Corporation in Brazil, their exposure to the Bank in Brazil, and their geographic location. When possible, responses from respondents completing this year’s country survey were compared to responses from the 423 respondents (49% response rate) who completed the country survey in FY 2006. All responses to comparable questions across years can be found in Appendix D (see page 117).

Sectoral Effectiveness (continued) Drivers of Effectiveness To determine the key drivers of respondents’ ratings of the Bank’s overall effectiveness and ratings of its ability to help achieve development results in Brazil, bivariate correlational analyses were conducted using respondents’ ratings of the forty-one specific areas of effectiveness. Correlational analyses, however, are not able to tell us exactly what is causing respondents’ ratings of the Bank’s overall effectiveness or ratings of its ability to help achieve development results. Rather, these analyses tell us that as ratings of effectiveness in one area increase, respondents’ ratings of the Bank’s overall effectiveness increase, or as ratings of effectiveness in one area increase, ratings of the Bank’s ability to help achieve development result s increase. Thus, it can be inferred that respondents’ perceptions of effectiveness in one specific area are related to, or drive, respondents’ perceptions of the Bank’s overall effectiveness or perceptions of the Bank’s ability to help achieve development results.  Overall Effectiveness: Those specific areas with the highest Pearson Product-Moment correlations were determined to be the most closely related to perceptions of the Bank’s overall effectiveness, suggesting that ratings of effectiveness in those specific areas are drivers of perceptions of the Bank’s overall effectiveness in Brazil. The areas determined to be key drivers from these analyses were:  The Bank’s effectiveness at education;  The Bank’s effectiveness at information and communications technology;  The Bank’s effectiveness at economic growth;  The Bank’s effectiveness at public sector governance/ reform; and  The Bank’s effectiveness at poverty reduction.  Achieving Development Results: Those specific areas with the highest Pearson Product- Moment correlations were determined to be the most closely related to perceptions of the Bank’s ability to help achieve development results in Brazil, suggesting that ratings of effectiveness in those specific areas are drivers of perceptions of the Bank’s ability to help achieve development results. The areas determined to be key drivers from these analyses were:  The Bank’s effectiveness at natural resource management;  The Bank’s effectiveness at economic growth;  The Bank’s effectiveness at education;  The Bank’s effectiveness at climate change; and  The Bank’s effectiveness at information and communications technology. 31 The World Bank Group Brazil Country Survey 2013 VII.
