Joint Polls

Increase in support for the Geneva Initiative in both publics compared to 2009. Among Palestinians the change is larger and is consistent across all parameters.

The March joint Israeli Palestinian poll focused on the main political outlines for a final status Palestinian- Israeli agreement. Those surveyed were asked whether they preferred a solution of two states for two peoples, a bi-national Palestinian-Israeli state, or a Palestinian-Israeli confederation.

The poll was jointly conducted by the Harry S. Truman Research Institute for the Advancement of Peace at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research in Ramallah

A recent poll conducted jointly by the Harry S. Truman Research Institute for the Advancement of Peace at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research in Ramallah shows an increase in the belief that a two-state solution is feasible after the Obama speech in Cairo, overall support for a two-state solution, preference for an comprehensive agreement as opposed to interim agreements, and support for mutual recognition.

This poll was commissioned by OneVoice Israel and OneVoice Palestine in collaboration with Dr. Colin Irwin of the Institute of Irish Studies at the University of Liverpool. The fieldwork for the public opinion polls was undertaken by Dr. Nader Said (AWRAD, of Ramallah) and Dr. Mina Zemach (Dahaf, of Tel Aviv) following the elections in Israel in February 2009.
