Survey Overview
This comprehensive survey investigates the complex dynamics between Palestinian civil society organizations and political structures. Through detailed questionnaires and focus groups, we examine how citizens perceive their representation in political decision-making processes, the barriers to meaningful engagement, and the role of civil society as a bridge between grassroots communities and political institutions.
