WVSA is an international network of scientists and research organizations that, starting in 1981, organize The World Values Survey (WVS), the largest global research project that explores people's values and beliefs, how they change over time, and what social and political impact they have. It standardizes, conducts and analyzes representative national surveys as part of WVS in almost 100 countries. Its work is frequently used by governments, scholars, students, journalists and international organizations such as the UN, OECD or the World Bank.
