Seven out of ten salvadorans express hope when thinking about the country’s future. This is revealed in the most recent UCA Survey entitled “The salvadoran population’s opinion on the year 2025: security stability versus economic fragility”, presented by the Instituto Universitario de Opinión Pública (Iudop). According to the results, 70.3% of those surveyed stated that hope is the first feeling that arises when reflecting on the nation’s direction in 2025.
This result positions hope as the predominant feeling among citizens, marking a significant difference compared to other perceptions. The data suggests that, despite existing challenges, most of the population maintains a positive outlook on the country’s future, in a context that the survey describes as one of security stability.
However, the study also reveals that a significant portion of the population experiences opposing feelings. 26.4% of respondents expressed fear when thinking about the country’s future, reflecting concerns that coexist with the majority’s optimism. This figure shows that more than a quarter of the population perceives uncertainty, which is linked to the fragility of the economy, one of the central themes of the analysis presented in the survey.
3.3% of those surveyed indicated that they identify neither with hope nor fear, placing themselves in a neutral position regarding the nation’s future. Although this is a smaller percentage, this group represents those who do not associate the country’s outlook with a specific emotion.
The results of the 2025 UCA Survey, conducted by IUDOP, thus paint a picture marked by contrast: a hopeful majority versus a significant segment that expresses concern. Taken together, the figures reflect the mood of the salvadoran population regarding the future, in a year characterized by advances in security and persistent economic tensions.
