Description

The Center for Strategic Studies (CSS) based at the University of Jordan is a leading Arab-region think tank with longstanding capacity in surveying and polling. Working with regional partners, CSS will conduct policy-relevant research and communication on the role of religion in the public sphere. To generate the data, the project will include polling initiatives in five Arab countries. Analysis based on polling data will inform policymakers, media, and civil society organizations, and will contribute to an expandable knowledge base on the role of religion in public institutions as viewed from within the Arab region. Corporation funds will support polling, research, meetings, and publications.
