Research for decisions
Understand public opinion. Inform your next step.
Trust, social divisions and perceptions of events and institutions call for evidence. Dor Moriah helps define the research question and connect findings with the decisions your organisation needs to make.
Questions we can explore together
Understand an audience
What expectations, concerns and priorities do different social groups share?
Examine divisions
Where do groups disagree, and where is there a basis for dialogue?
Study perceptions
How do people perceive a public initiative, an institution or the information agenda?
For civil society organisations, foundations, research teams and organisations addressing public issues in Israel.
From a question to findings
Define the task
We discuss the decision ahead, whose views matter and what is already known.
Agree on the approach
We agree on questions, audiences, data collection methods and limitations. When fieldwork is needed, the provider and its role are defined separately.
Analyse and prepare materials
Deliverables are agreed in advance: an analytical report, tables and charts, a presentation of findings or a discussion with your team.
Discuss the implications
We distinguish observations, interpretations and limitations to identify informed next steps.
Research example: how Israelis perceive foreign information influence
In October 2026, a study of perceptions of foreign information influence was conducted within the Haifa Format project with the participation of the Geocartography Sociological Centre. The published study includes methods, findings and comparisons across social groups.
- respondents: internet users aged 18+
- 1,003
- believe foreign states pursue a long-term influence programme
- 65.7%
- describe Israel’s actions in the information sphere as predominantly reactive
- 56.1%
Fieldwork took place in mid-October 2026. The survey describes respondents’ perceptions; it does not establish whether interference programmes actually exist. Methods and limitations of subgroup comparisons are detailed in the full study.

Yes. For an initial discussion, describe the task, the audience and the decision the research should inform.
What are the timeline and cost?
These are determined after discussing the scope, method, audience and deliverables.
Can we propose a joint study?
You can propose a research partnership. Roles, data access and publication terms are discussed before work begins.
