Broadband and the User IV

The project Broadband and the User started in 2001. Since then, four measurements have been carried out. Although the composition of the project partners varied over the years, two parties have been involved in all measurements. These are the Ministry of Economic Affairs and KPN. New this time is the support from the Main Business Association for Retail (HBD), the Stimulus Fund for the Press, and the Ministry of Education, Culture, and Science. Due to the change in project partners, the topics covered have also been slightly modified compared to previous measurements. For example, online purchasing of products and the use of the internet for news gathering are extensively covered. Just like in the previous studies, three research methods are used. The first and central research method is an online survey. In addition to the online survey, diary research on 'issues of the day' provides insights and opinions on the future of broadband. Unlike the online survey, the goal here is not to obtain a representative image, but to support and clarify the results of the survey (stories behind the figures).
