ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

World Association for Public Opinion Research

Okay kiddo, let me explain it to you! The World Association for Public Opinion Research is a group that helps people around the world study what lots of people think about different things. They help teams of people called researchers find out what people are thinking by asking them questions about different topics.

It's like when your teacher asks you a question in class and everyone puts their hand up to answer. Imagine if your teacher wanted to know what all the kids in school thought about something, and not just one class. That's what the World Association for Public Opinion Research helps with.

Their job is to make sure that the questions are fair and asked in the right way, so that everyone's answer can be counted equally. That way, they can get a better idea of what a lot of people are thinking about important things like health, education, and even politics.

So basically, they're a group of people who help other people find out what lots of other people think about different things. Pretty cool, huh?
