Along with a random sample of 2500 greater Christchurch residents, randomly selected from the Electoral Rolls by Nielsen, the feedback and insights from the online survey will help CERA and other agencies working on recovery to better understand people’s perceptions and experiences of the earthquakes and their aftermath.
Survey questions cover issues like quality of life, stress, how connected people are with others, satisfaction with the recovery as well as the positive impacts people are experiencing.
CERA General Manager Community Wellbeing Michelle Mitchell says all residents of greater Christchurch are encouraged to participate in the online survey. “It is open to everyone, as we want to understand everyone’s experiences not just those who have been most affected. This is an important opportunity for people to tell us what they think about how things are going.”
The Wellbeing Survey will be run twice a year for the next three years. “We need more information about how people are feeling in different parts of town and in the greater Christchurch area. From this, we can see what trends are emerging in different places and identify where best to target resources,” she says.
CERA and its partner agencies will use the Survey results to identify where more support, assistance and resources may be needed and to enhance areas that are going well. Results will be presented in the Canterbury Wellbeing Index on the CERA website in early 2013.
