Risks that Matter: Main Findings from the 2018 OECD Risks that Matter Survey

This survey published by the OECD asked 22,000 people aged 18 to 70 years old in 21 countries about their worries and concerns and how well they think their government helps them tackle social and economic risks. Policies cannot reach their full potential if people feel they cannot fully access benefits and services when needed. This OECD survey shows that listening to people and implementation matters. Better efforts are needed to understand what drives these perceptions, to map where and why people feel they are struggling, and to listen to their suggestions in the formulation and evaluation of benefits and services. This will contribute to making social protection more effective and efficient, restoring trust and confidence in government and policies, and promoting equality of opportunity
