Political and social

TNS is a world leading provider of customised political, social and economic research services. We cover elections and are delivering insight to assist decision-makers in a wide range of social policy issues - education, health, social services, environment, employment, parenting and child protection, public transport, justice, immigration and community integration.

We conduct millions of interviews every year to help clients understand how the public is thinking or reacting to major issues on a national or international scale. We provide insight on major trends, such as how the public is feeling about its elected leaders, and predict the likely outcomes of up and coming elections.

We also use qualitative research techniques to understand how people really feel about government policies and programs. These may be broad policies directed at the general public or they may be specialised services that target narrowly-defined groups of constituents.

We have dedicated political and social researchers in offices across 80 countries.

Our extensive global reach ensures a seamless international response to clients’ global market information requirements in social and political research.
