About the Observatory
The Orihuela Public Opinion Observatory is an instrument of the Department of Citizen Participation created to improve municipal management, promote citizen involvement, and ensure that political and administrative decisions are supported by scientific data and aligned with the real needs of all Orihuela residents. To achieve this, citizens’ opinions will be collected with the aim of improving municipal management, fostering citizen participation, and guaranteeing that political decisions are based on data extracted from the real demands and concerns of the public.
