YPC IS AWARDED “COURAGE UNDER FIRE” AWARD FROM GALLUP
The Yemen Polling Center (YPC) was awarded the 2019 MENA World Poll “Courage Under Fire” award from Gallup, Inc., an American analytics and advisory company based in Washington, D.C. The award was created to recognize organizations for their extraordinary data collection abilities under confligt conditions. The award was presented to Amr Muqbil, representing YPC, during the annual MENA World Poll meeting in Tunis, Tunisa between 4 and 5 February 2020. YPC was awarded for its excellent and high-standard research services generated under the challenges of war and a critical security situation.
Jihad Fakhreddine, Gallup Regional Research Director, expressed his great appreciation for the scientific achievements of YPC in the last years. Mr. Fakhreddine thanked all YPC research staff in Yemen under the lead of Hafez Albukari for their excellent work and high-quality data collection.
YPC is Gallup’s partner in Yemen for the Gallup World Poll since 2005. The Gallup’s World Poll continually surveys citizens in 140 countries, representing 95% of the world’s adult population, measuring the public’s attitudes regarding political, social and economic issues, including highly sensitive and controversial subjects.
Technology
YPC stays up to date with the newest technology.
Yemen Polling Center conducts interviews using Computer Assisted Personal Interviewing (CAPI). YPC developed special software, which allows the interviewer to record responses with a computer. With this method, unlike with Computer Assisted Telephone Interviewing (CATI), the interview takes place face to face instead of over the telephone. CAPI technology is the preferred method for the data collection of long and complex questionnaires.
