Dear Friend, we shall be asking your opinion on several issues,
ranging from the design and content of our website to your
concerns and priorities regarding Northeast* Italy.
Your responses will allow us to create a set of recommendations
for the future of the organization and to decide which future
activities and projects to undertake.
Your opinion is even more vital if you have lived and
worked abroad.
This foreign experience has in fact given you the possibility
of widening your horizons and gaining a better perception
of what needs to be changed in the Venices*.
Please spend a few minutes of your time to fill in our anonymous
surveys. Answer as many questions as possible, but ignore
any questions you would rather not answer - we prefer in fact
to receive a partially completed questionnaire rather than
not receive it at all. If you have a dissenting opinion please
let us know about it. We do welcome your comments whether
or not you support our efforts.
All documents are in PDF format. If you

Institute, to improve the allocation of its scarce resources,
to decide which future activities and projects to undertake,

the future of the organization.
- Corruption
and Ethics
If you currently live or work in Northeast* Italy
- or even if you are here just temporarily for holiday or
business reasons - please spare a few minutes to answer
this survey. It gives you the chance to tell us what you
think corruption is, how bad you believe it is, what its
causes are and what you reckon might be done to minimize
its negative effects.
- Concerns
and Priorities
If you currently live or work in Venetia* - or even
if you are here just temporarily for holiday or business
reasons - please spare a few minutes to answer this survey.
It gives you the chance to tell us about your concerns and
priorities regarding the Venices*. For instance, are you
worried more about inefficient public services than you
are about corruption in the judicial system? Or is lack
of public security and personal safety your top concern?
And how do you believe these issues should be tackled?
- Comments
and Suggestions
We welcome your comments and suggestions on any issue you
deem important and which has not been considered in the
other surveys.
The
Ten Most Serious Problems in the Venices*
(currently available only in italian)
In the past months, a public survey was carried out amongst
members and supporters of the Institute, and amongst the general
public. The aim of the survey was to discover what issues
the citizens of North-East* Italy consider most worrying
and which ones they reckon to be the most serious.
Survey participants were given a list containing 51 issues
which, in the opinion of the survey editors, are currently
afflicting the Venices*. Each participant was asked
to choose those ten issues (and ten only) which she/he
wished the Regional Governments to place at the top of their
work agenda.
"Inefficient judicial system" came top of
the "winning list" of the ten most serious problems
in the Venices*; this issue was chosen by 82% of the
respondents. In second position we have"illegal immigration",
which was chosen by 62% of the respondents. In third position,
"unfair taxes" chosen by 55% of the respondents.
Giving a "weight" to the items in this list and
taking values 1, 2 and 3 as indicating maximum importance,
the issue "mancanza di educazione civica"
(i.e. dwindling awareness of citizens' moral and ethical duties)
gains first place in the "winning list".
This issue has in fact been given the highest number of "heavy
votes". 60% of individuals who chose it, have in fact
classified it as being of the utmost importance.
Thank you for taking the time to complete
our surveys.
