During July 16-31, 2026, the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS) conducted an all-Ukrainian public opinion survey. The survey was conducted using a mixed-mode method: half of the respondents were interviewed using computer-assisted telephone interviews (CATI), and half were interviewed using face-to-face interviews using tablets.

Telephone interviews were conducted using a database of randomly generated mobile numbers. Interviewers then called the mobile numbers and invited citizens to participate in the survey (if they were living in the territory controlled by Ukraine at the time of the interview and were 18 years old). No additional quotas were applied, and the final array was statistically weighted.

Personal interviews were conducted on the basis of a stratified three-stage random sample with quota selection at the last stage. The sample was developed only for the territories controlled by the Government of Ukraine. Initially, the sample was stratified by oblast and urban/rural area (the division into urban/rural area was carried out on the basis of the averaged share of citizens who reported living in a village based on the results of telephone surveys by KIIS in 2026 (based on a random sample). Then, at the first stage, polling stations were randomly selected within the stratum (a total of 90 polling stations in 54 different settlements were selected). In the second stage, the starting address was selected within the station, and in the third stage, citizens were selected according to the gender-age task. The final array was also weighted to be fully equivalent in these dimensions to the array of telephone interviews.

In both surveys, the planned sample size was 900 respondents, of which 300 were from Kyiv city. For the analysis, the “weight” of Kyiv city was adjusted to the statistics during the statistical weighting of each of the arrays.

In total, 1,808 interviews were conducted within the framework of the research, of which 905 were telephone interviews (including 305 with those currently living in Kyiv city), 903 were personal interviews (including 302 with those currently living in Kyiv city).

Formally, for normal circumstances, the statistical error of the sample (with a probability of 0.95 and a design effect of 1.3 and taking into account the sample structure with additional interviews in Kyiv city) does not exceed 3.5% for a sample of 1,808 respondents (full sample) and 4.9% for a sample of about 900 respondents (separate telephone interviews and individual personal interviews).

Under conditions of war, in addition to the specified formal error, a certain systematic deviation is added. Factors that may affect the quality of results in "wartime" conditions were previously cited by KIIS.

In general, we believe that the obtained results are still highly representative and allow a fairly reliable analysis of the public moods of the population.

In the appendix you can find the results separately for telephone interviews and for personal interviews.

We also note that the calculations in the press release are rounded to integer values. In some cases, the sum of % may not add up to exactly 100% due to rounding (the same applies to the calculation of the balance of trust-distrust).

From July 20 to August 3, 2026, the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS) conducted its own all-Ukrainian public opinion survey, to which, on its own initiative, added questions about war and peace. By the method of telephone interviews (computer-assisted telephone interviews, CATI) based on a random sample of mobile phone numbers (with random generation of phone numbers and subsequent statistical weighting) in all regions of Ukraine (the territory controlled by the Government of Ukraine), 974 respondents were surveyed. The survey was conducted with adult (aged 18 and older) citizens of Ukraine who, at the time of the survey, lived in the territory of Ukraine controlled by the Government of Ukraine. The sample did not include residents of territories temporarily not controlled by the Ukrainian authorities (at the same time, some of the respondents are IDPs who moved from the occupied territories), and the survey was not conducted with citizens who left abroad after February 24, 2022.

Formally, under normal circumstances, the statistical error of such a sample (with a probability of 0.95 and taking into account the design effect of 1.3) did not exceed 4.1% for indicators close to 50%, 3.5% for indicators close to 25%, 2.5% for indicators close to 10%, 1.8% for indicators close to 5%.

Under conditions of war, in addition to the specified formal error, a certain systematic deviation is added. Factors that may affect the quality of results in "wartime" conditions were previously cited by KIIS.

In general, we believe that the obtained results are still highly representative and allow a fairly reliable analysis of the public moods of the population.

KIIS regularly conducts surveys for NDI (National Democratic Institute). Below is a publication prepared by NDI. You could also find it at the NDI’s website. 

Four years into Russia’s full-scale invasion, Ukrainians’ commitment to democracy remains unwavering — despite extraordinary personal loss, economic hardship, and profound uncertainty.

Since 2015, the National Democratic Institute (NDI) has conducted nationwide polling on Ukrainian’s views towards their democratic trajectory, the geopolitical climate, and their hopes for the future. The March 2026 survey presented here is the twenty-fourth in that series and the ninth since the full-scale invasion began.

The findings show that Ukrainians are not only defending their territory — they are defending the democratic future they envision for their country. At the same time, the findings reveal an important tension: while citizens overwhelmingly believe in democracy as the right path for Ukraine, they are unsatisfied with many of their own democratic institutions as the country navigates one of the most challenging periods in its history.

 From July 20 to August 3, 2026, the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS) conducted its own all-Ukrainian public opinion survey, to which, on its own initiative, added questions about trust in V. Zelenskyy and about the national elections. By the method of telephone interviews (computer-assisted telephone interviews, CATI) based on a random sample of mobile phone numbers (with random generation of phone numbers and subsequent statistical weighting) in all regions of Ukraine (the territory controlled by the Government of Ukraine), 974 respondents were surveyed.

Formally, under normal circumstances, the margin of error of such a sample (with a probability of 0.95 and taking into account the design effect of 1.3) did not exceed 4.1% for indicators close to 50%, 3.5% for indicators close to 25%, 2.5% for indicators close to 10%, 1.8% for indicators close to 5%.

Under conditions of war, in addition to the specified formal error, a certain systematic deviation is added. Factors that may affect the quality of results in “wartime” conditions were previously cited by KIIS.

From May 7 to June 3, 2026, the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS) conducted its own all-Ukrainian public opinion survey, to which, on its own initiative, added a question about trust in President V. Zelenskyy and other public figures. By the method of telephone interviews (computer-assistedtelephoneinterviews, CATI) based on a random sample of mobile phone numbers (with random generation of phone numbers and subsequent statistical weighting) in all regions of Ukraine (the territory controlled by the Government of Ukraine), 1,015 respondents were surveyed. The survey was conducted with adult (aged 18 and older) citizens of Ukraine who, at the time of the survey, lived in the territory of Ukraine controlled by the Government of Ukraine.
