The Guam Ethics Commission (GECOM) is an independent and autonomous instrumentality within the Government of Guam, whose purpose is to hold public officers and employees accountable to the Ethical standards established in Guam law.
The Guam Ethics Commission’s mandate is to uplift the public’s confidence in government employees, programs, and operations by ensuring the practice and promotion of the highest standards of ethical behavior in the government of Guam. To accomplish this mandate, the GECOM is seeking proposals from qualified firms to develop the Island’s first Public Trust Meter. The Trust Meter will serve as a vital tool for the Commission to gauge public sentiment and community trust over time. This study aims to assess the levels of public confidence in various institutions, including government, media, businesses, healthcare, and other social sectors, and to identify areas of strength and uncover opportunities for improvement. The Trust Meter will provide baseline metrics for public trust, utilizing robust, data-driven frameworks to offer key insights for local policymakers, public officials, government agencies, and community organizations. These insights will assist GECOM and community stakeholders in the development of strategic programs to enhance engagement with the general public and foster greater public trust across these sectors.
